Hi

When i want to emerge some packages, the emerge fails,
with an error message concerning "touch":
Code:
aim-rush bin # emerge  sys-apps/man-pages                   
Calculating dependencies... done!
>>> Verifying ebuild Manifests...
>>> starting parallel fetching pid 8921

 *      touch "${PORTAGE_BUILDDIR}/.unpacked" || die "IO Failure -- Failed 'touch .unpacked' in ${PORTAGE_BUILDDIR}"
 *  The die message:
 *   IO Failure -- Failed 'touch .unpacked' in /var/tmp/portage/sys-apps/man-pages-3.01
 *
 * If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant.
 * A complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/sys-apps/man-pages-3.01/temp/build.log'.
 * The ebuild environment file is located at '/var/tmp/portage/sys-apps/man-pages-3.01/temp/environment'.
 *


The same happens for
  • sys-apps/baselayout
  • sys-apps/man
  • sys-process/psmisc
  • sys-apps/shadow

and more.

Does anybody have an idea what's wrong here?

Thank You
Jody

You upgraded coreutils, and that version of coreutils doesn't support kernels older than 2.6.22.
Upgrade your kernel or downgrade coreutils.

Armin76,Polynomial-C: Thanks for your help.

Unfortunately i was neither able to upgrade coreutils,
nor to install a new kernel - both ways i got the "touch"-error.

Finally i managed to install an old coreutils from
Code:
http://tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org/default-linux/x86/sys-apps/coreutils-6.10-r2.tbz2
.
I then masked the "Bad" coreutils
Code:
>=sys-apps/coreutils-6.12
emerged coreutils again (-> 6.11) and now everything is ok.

Thank You
Jody

I am stuck with this same problem for any emerge after an update world updated to the latest coreutils:

>>> Unpacking firefox-3.0.tar.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/www-client/mozilla-firefox-bin-3.0/work
touch: setting times of `/var/tmp/portage/www-client/mozilla-firefox-bin-3.0/.unpacked': Function not implemented
*
* ERROR: www-client/mozilla-firefox-bin-3.0 failed.
* Call stack:
* ebuild.sh, line 1784: Called dyn_unpack
* ebuild.sh, line 677: Called die
* The specific snippet of code:
* touch "${PORTAGE_BUILDDIR}/.unpacked" || die "IO Failure -- Failed 'touch .unpacked' in ${PORTAGE_BUILDDIR}"
* The die message:
* IO Failure -- Failed 'touch .unpacked' in /var/tmp/portage/www-client/mozilla-firefox-bin-3.0

Can someone give me a procedure how fix this, including specifically how to patch or downgrade? I cant use portage at all at the moment, so a kernel upgrade is out.

Thanks.

RESOLVED:

Downgraded to previous version of coreutils:

wget http://tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org/default-linux/x86/sys-apps/coreutils-6.10-r2.tbz2
mv coreutils-6.10-r2.tbz2 /usr/portage/sys-apps/coreutils
cd /usr/portage/sys-apps/coreutils
tar -C / -xvjf coreutils-6.10-r2.tbz2
emerge =coreutils-6.10-r2
revdep-rebuild

thanks
