I don't know gnome packages, but I'd guess finding error 1 would be in |
| 6 |
order. Somewhere, maybe far, above. |

Are you sure you haven't missed running python-updater and/or revdep-rebuild? |

My bets on that bug report (as well as your system, given the very |
| 22 |
limited amount of info so far) would be on "probably a broken system". |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
For example, the bug reporter is freely mixing and matching ancient |
| 25 |
stable stage3 packages with bleeding-edge testing stuff from ~arch. |
| 26 |
And all this without -uDN options for emerge (nor revdep-rebuilds), so |
| 27 |
he really gets a fully mixed-up bag of untested combinations. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
And then it all backfired on him ... probably his ancient python from |
| 30 |
the stage3 tarball got bumped to a later version anyway, and thus all |
| 31 |
python-related packages would sorely need re-emerging, i.e., running |
| 32 |
python-updater or a manual emerge ... |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
What we'd need is some actual log outputs revealing what is going on. |
| 35 |
Maybe it is a bug. Maybe it is just a broken system. Maybe it is both? |
