1 Hi,
2
3 I'm building a system using a 2006.0 minimal install disk and
4 following the (current) installation docs. I got to the part where it
5 is suggested I upgrade portage. However, there is a blocker:
6
7 (chroot) livecd / # emerge -p --oneshot portage
8
9 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
10
11 Calculating dependencies... done!
12
13 [ebuild U ] sys-apps/sandbox-1.2.18.1-r2 [1.2.17]
14 [ebuild U ] dev-python/pycrypto-2.0.1-r6 [2.0.1-r5]
15 [ebuild U ] sys-apps/portage-2.1.4.4 [2.1.2.2]
16 *** Portage will stop merging at this point and reload itself,
17 then resume the merge.
18 [ebuild U ] app-shells/bash-3.2_p33 [3.1_p17] USE="-plugins%"
19 [blocks B ] <sys-apps/portage-2.1.4_rc1 (is blocking app-shells/bash-3.2_p33)
20 (chroot) livecd / # emerge -pC portage
21
22 >>> These are the packages that would be unmerged:
23
24
25 !!! 'sys-apps/portage' is part of your system profile.
26 !!! Unmerging it may be damaging to your system.
27
28
29 sys-apps/portage
30 selected: 2.1.2.2
31 protected: none
32 omitted: none
33
34 >>> 'Selected' packages are slated for removal.
35 >>> 'Protected' and 'omitted' packages will not be removed.
36
37 I looked on the bugzilla but this "bug" is maked invalid. Could
38 someone please suggest a next step?
39
40 Thanks,
41 Roger
