Re: [gentoo-hardened] Migration problems

[Michael]

I think your python is broken... Something is broken and since emerge
needs it there is no easy way to get it working again. The easiest is if
someone can provide the needed package as a tgz/tbz2 which you can
then extract to / to have emerge working again, after which you can
remerge the package that stopped working. My guess is it's python,
but I'm not 100% sure.
Good luck,

Michael
