Emerge broke-UnboundLocalError: local variable 'cfgfiledict'

[P2x]

Whenever I do an emere on anything now I get basically the same error as is spewed out below..

I believe this began occuring after I had run an "emerge -u system"?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Paul.

First thing I would try is to update portage. If you can't do it with emerge, do it manually with one of the tarballs in /usr/portage/sys-apps/portage/files.
