I'm having this same problem, and it's preventing me from emerging the system.

There's some stuff on the Gentoo wiki here: http://gentoo-wiki.com/Talk:Gentoo_for_Mac_OS_X (scroll down to the bottom).

I'll give it a try when I have a second.

Ok, that fixed it. Here's exactly what I did.

Code:

ebuild /usr/portage/sys-apps/sed/sed-4.1.4.ebuild unpack
ebuild /usr/portage/sys-apps/sed/sed-4.1.4.ebuild compile
ebuild /usr/portage/sys-apps/sed/sed-4.1.4.ebuild install
mv /var/tmp/portage/sed-4.1.4/image/bin/sed /var/tmp/portage/sec-4.1.4/image/bin/gsed
FEATURES=-collision-protect ebuild /usr/portage/sys-apps/sed/sed-4.1.4.ebuild qmerge


Of course now I'm having problems with Pico...

[edit]
Pico was taken care of with a
Code:
emerge -i app-editors/pico-0.0.1

I think I agree that this should not be happening... perhaps someone should file a bug report?

Thanks for the hack to get around it, had to blow away my install and was reinstalling when I hit this snag.

Peace.

Yeah, it looks to me like the /etc/make.profile/package.provided isn't being respected at all. If it was portage wouldn't try to install sed and pico.

Thanks for the help everyone! The hack to get around this worked for me also.
I submitted a bug for this. https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96321
Hopefully it will be resolved soon.

Anyone know of any downsides to injecting pico like the hack says to? I did it but wonder if it may haunt me later.

Thanks for posting to bugzilla, guys. As a developer, I rarely have time enough even for dev work, let alone browsing the forum seeking out bugs. Especially as of late, we're low on Mac OS X devs, so there's plenty of work to go around without 'wasting' time on the forums. Nonetheless, I do want to point out (yet again) that it's absolutely necessary that you post bugs to bugzilla. Quite frankly, we won't see them otherwise.

Lina and I took a look at this bug as soon as we got the chance because it was a system blocker. Please post to the bug if there are any more problems after an 'emerge sync'.

Thanks again.
