I am having a terrible time today :(. I am attempting to make my first ebuild and when it came time to test it after a day's worth of effort, I get these errors:

Code:

bash-2.05b# emerge penguzzle
Calculating dependencies
emerge: there are no masked or unmasked ebuilds to satisfy "penguzzle".
 
!!! Error calculating dependancies. Please correct.
bash-2.05b# emerge /usr/local/portage/penguzzle/penguzzle-1.0.ebuild
Calculating dependencies \!!! Failed to stat ebuild: /usr/portage/portage/penguzzle/penguzzle-1.0.ebuild
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1685, in ?
    retval,favorites=mydepgraph.select_files(myfiles)
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 585, in select_files
    if not self.create(["ebuild",portage.root,mykey],None,"--onlydeps" not in myopts):
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 536, in create
    edepend[x]=string.join(portage.portdb.aux_get(mykey,[x]), " ")
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/string.py", line 131, in join
    return sep.join(words)
TypeError: sequence expected, NoneType found
bash-2.05b#



Portage seems to be looking in /usr/portage/portage/... , instead of the path given & also does not see the make.conf's PORTDIR_OVERLAY=/usr/local/portage
Doing an :emerge -s portage gets
Code:

      Latest version available: 2.0.47-r2
      Latest version installed: 2.0.47-r2


Thanks for any help, Brian

It does see the local portage, just put the package directory inside a group directory...

e.g.
Code:
/usr/local/portage/sys-apps/penguzzle

Thank you.

That did the trick. Sometimes things are almost impossible to see even when you are staring at them.


Thank you again, Brian :)
