Before I went to bed, I first did an
Code:
emerge rsync
and then an
Code:
emerge -u system


This morning I saw the following error message on my screen:
Quote:

Any ideas ?

If I'm not mistaken, gcc-3.2.2 is masked. We're you installing any masked packages recently?

nope, I haven't installed any masked packages as I know of.

ok, I got it working.
Not sure what was wrong, but probably config files that were not updated.

This what I did after my first post:

Code:
emerge -u portage

-> there was nothing out-of-date, but there were 37 config files that needed updating
Code:
etc-update

Code:
emerge -u system

-> error because portage tree was empty !!
Code:
emerge rsync

-> while in progress I ran out of disk space
-> removed some stuff to free up disk space
Code:
emerge rsync (again)

Code:
emerge portage

Code:
emerge -u system

-> this time, only 1 package needed updating: sys-apps/baselayout-1.8.5.8
-> (previous time 25 packages needed updating)


So I suppose it was a problem with the 37 config files that needed updating ?
