 |
|
Hi all,
I can't simply run a emerge without get merge problems, I need some help to solve the problem, maybe some of you have a good idea.
If I emerge a package, most the time it results in an error like this:
| Code: |
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 5481, in ?
retval = emerge_main()
File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 5476, in emerge_main

retval = mergetask.merge(pkglist, favorites, mtimedb)

OSError: [Errno 17] File exists: '/var/db/pkg/dev-util/-MERGING-pkgconfig-0.21-r1'

Simple remove of the -MERGING* directory has no effect, the result after next emerge run on the same package is the same problem. AFAIK I don't use any extra special tools to enhance portage, but I'm not sure, because the system is also at least 2 years old but up to date.
My trick is at the moment, to emerge portage (2.1.2.2) or emerge python (2.4.3-r4) again, most the time one of them is possible to emerge. Then it seems to be possible to emerge any other packages. After a reboot the same procedure.
There must be something wrong in my system. Any ideas?
Please help!

On point from me, revdep-rebuild has no effects.

Absolutly no ideas, what could be wrong here?
I found the problem, after a long period of thinking and analysing about. It was a file system failure.
I'm using a reiserfs loop file for /var/db as also for /usr/portage. The /usr/portage tree will recreate every time, I got a new portage snapshot tree. Simple script was doing such for me in a cron job. But /var/db is all the time the same. This /var/db got a failure after some crashes in the past. I don't know. Nevertheless, I rebuild a new /var/db loop file and put all the pkg stuff in it by copy command.
Now merge works again, as expected.
