I can't emerge --update world! It seems that the world option is the only one afflicted, buts its inhibiting me from keeping my gentoo properly updated. Here is the error:

Calculating world dependencies
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1232, in ?
if not mydepgraph.syscreate(getworldlist()):
File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 337, in getworldlist
if portage.db[portage.root]["porttree"].dep_match(x):
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 2254, in dep_match
mymatch=self.dbapi.xmatch("match-visible",mydep)
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 2655, in xmatch
mydep=dep_expand(origdep,self)
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 2005, in dep_expand
return prefix+cpv_expand(mydep,mydb)+postfix
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 1973, in cpv_expand
if mydb.cp_list(x+"/"+myp):
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 2642, in cp_list
for x in listdir(self.root+"/"+mycp):
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py", line 30, in listdir
mtime = os.stat(path)[8]
TypeError: stat() argument 1 must be (encoded string without NULL bytes), not str

I think this error started popping up after I ran an env-update, but I'm not sure. I am root while doing this, I've cleaned my rsync tree and reemerged portage more times than I can count. I have even tried rebuilding python.

Any help would be _greatly_ appreciated!!!

I had the same problem. What worked for me was just to 'emerge -u portage" and after it did that i was able to emerge everything.
