First, portage broke down pretty hard , it kept telling me to contact the devs.
being an experienced gentoo'er though, i finally got portage running by getting a fresh tarball from a working gentoo host.
After that, i did emerge -pv portage.
| Code: | argus portage # emerge -pv portage

4 years???
I thought 2 weeks without a sync was long.
But if it's some kind of server you should sync it regular to allow glsa-check to function properly

It was a firewall, no services enabled and IpTables still did its work without requiring updates. As someone wanted to use a non-supported protocol, I had to update the kernel (finally) and then ran into these problems |

No I took a working Gentoo host (the webserver) and did:
| Code: |
cd /usr/lib/portage
tar -zcvf portage.tar.gz *
ftp portage.tar.gz > destination host
and unpack there.
|
That copied all python scripts with updated variants, which was enough to get it back to work. |
