Had just problem having updated to libicu-49. run revdep-rebuild which noticed that sqlite-3 is broken, but then emerge crashed itself because of issue
in sqlite.py. That is, revdep-rebuild ended with

Code:


emerge -pv app-emulation/virtualbox-extpack-oracle
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 43, in <module>
    retval = emerge_main()
  File "/usr/lib64/portage/pym/_emerge/main.py", line 1617, in emerge_main
    portdb = trees[settings['EROOT']]['porttree'].dbapi
  File "/usr/lib64/portage/pym/portage/util/__init__.py", line 1332, in __getitem__
    result = lazy_item.func(*pargs, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib64/portage/pym/portage/dbapi/porttree.py", line 1068, in __init__
    self.dbapi = portdbapi(mysettings=settings)
  File "/usr/lib64/portage/pym/portage/dbapi/porttree.py", line 180, in __init__
    self.depcachedir, x, self._known_keys, **cache_kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib64/portage/pym/portage/cache/sqlite.py", line 27, in __init__
    self._import_sqlite()
  File "/usr/lib64/portage/pym/portage/cache/sqlite.py", line 54, in _import_sqlite
    raise cache_errors.InitializationError(self.__class__, e)
InitializationError: Creation of instance <class 'portage.cache.sqlite.database'> failed due to No module named pysqlite2


And here I am, without working emerge. Is there way to ask emerge not to use sqlite, or should I be off to rescue disk ?

============

OK, disabling sqlite modules in /etc/portage/modules did the trick

emerge was crashing before it could do anything with other packages. So I had to disable using sqlite by emerge itself.

For anyone else that has this, try:
Code:
set -C
echo "portdbapi.auxdbmodule = portage.cache.flat_hash.database" > /etc/portage/modules
revdep-rebuild
rm /etc/portage/modules
