4
5 --- SNIP md5 messages ---
6
7 /usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild.sh: line 1: /bin/expr: No such file or directory
8 * Your expr binary appears to be broken, please fix it.
9 * For more info, see http://bugs.gentoo.org/123342

11 !!! ERROR: sys-apps/coreutils-6.4 failed.
12 !!! Function pkg_setup, Line 43, Exitcode 0
