 Posted: Thu Sep 21, 2006 2:09 pm Post subject: [BUG 148534] eselect profile list |
 |
|
I was trying to eselect to manage the profile symlink (i know, i know, it only a symlink)
'show' works:
| Code: | # eselect profile show
Current make.profile symlink:
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2006.0
|
but 'list' fails:
| Code: | # eselect profile list
!!! Error: Failed to get a list of valid profiles
exiting.
|
I kinda feel that if eselect offers the option to manage the profile, then it should work, even if it's only a symlink.
Any1 get this working?

jcat: Works perfectely for me
Version 1.0.5 â the latest, surprisingly marked unstable at http://packages.gentoo.org/search/?sstring=eselect â has | Code: | describe_list() {
echo "List available profile symlink targets"
}
do_list() {
local active targets
targets=( $(find_targets) )
[[ -z "${targets}" ]] && die -q "Failed to get a list of valid profiles"
... |
in /usr/share/eselect/modules/profile.eselect. So it should work.
But, then again | Code: | # eselect profile list
!!! Error: Failed to get a list of valid profiles
exiting. |

it appears that the problem is with "arch"
my arch is i686:
/usr/portage/profiles/profiles.desc does not contain entries for i686, only x86
| Code: | # grep "86" /usr/portage/profiles/profiles.desc
# x86 Profiles
#x86 default-linux/x86/2005.0 stable
#x86 default-linux/x86/2005.1 stable
#x86 default-linux/x86/2006.0 stable
x86 default-linux/x86/2006.1 stable
x86 default-linux/x86/no-nptl stable
x86 default-linux/x86/no-nptl/2.4 stable
x86 default-linux/x86/2006.1/desktop stable
#x86 default-linux/x86/2006.1/server stable
x86-fbsd default-bsd/fbsd/6.1/x86 dev
x86 hardened/x86 stable
x86 hardened/x86/2.6 stable
#x86 uclibc/x86 dev
#x86 uclibc/x86/2.4 dev
#x86 uclibc/x86/2005.1 dev
#x86 uclibc/x86/2005.1/2.4 dev
#x86 uclibc/x86/hardened dev
#x86 uclibc/x86/hardened/2.4 dev
|
issuing the sed command (for x86) that's in the script:
| Code: | sed -n -e "s|^x86[[:space:]]\+\([^[:space:]]\+\).*$|\1|p" //usr/portage/profiles/profiles.desc
default-linux/x86/2006.1
default-linux/x86/no-nptl
default-linux/x86/no-nptl/2.4
default-linux/x86/2006.1/desktop
hardened/x86
hardened/x86/2.6
|
issuing the sed command for i686 yeilds nothing.

It looks as if you should post a bug report â you seem to have found a definite bug, searching based on arch which doesn't match the profile tag.

Nope, I'm on arch i686 as well.
x86 part of the profile refers to the 32bit stable Gentoo portage tree you're using. Good suggestion though.
Cheers,

Hi,
quick (hackish?) fix until this is fixed in portage:
| Code: | | sed -e 's:arch=$(arch):arch=$(arch | sed "s|^i[3-6]|x|"):' -i /usr/share/eselect/modules/profile.eselect |
Explanation:
the above sed-commad replaces the line with | Code: | | arch=$(arch | sed "s|^i[3-6]|x|") |
in /usr/share/eselect/modules/profile.eselect
Tested on two i686 machines; works like a charm 
Cheers
