Subject: [gentoo-user] PORTAGE_TMPDIR and emerge sync

1 Hi all!
2
3 Lately emerge sync behaves strange on all of my Gentoo boxes that use a
4 non-standard temp dir for Portage.
5
6 The according /etc/make.conf's contain the following lines (amongst others):
7
8 PORTAGE_TMPDIR=/workdir/portage/tmp
9 PORTDIR=/workdir/portage
10 DISTDIR=${PORTDIR}/distfiles
11 PKGDIR=${PORTDIR}/packages
12 PORT_LOGDIR=/workdir/portage/log/
13
14 These settings were fine for almost a year now.
15
16 But recently I recognized the following messages at the end of an emerge
17 sync:
18
19 :
20 deleting tmp/timestamp.x
21 deleting tmp/timestamp.chk
22 deleting tmp/timestamp
23 deleting directory tmp
24 :
25 >>> Updating Portage cache... !!! Stating source file failed...
26 movefile()
27 !!! [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
28 '/workdir/portage/tmp/timestamp.chk'
29 ...done!
30
31 Well at least the last error message seems to be reasonable ...
32
33 Does anyone have a similar experience?
