Hey,
I'm at school right now so I don't have access to my gentoo home box (no outgoing internet except on port 80 :*( ). However, I'm fairly sure this should work. Open up a terminal and cd into /usr/portage/sys-apps/portage/files (i'm pretty sure that's the right directory)
read README.RESCUE. If I remember correctly, this is to fix both broken python and broken portage installs, so this should work for you. Good luck ! |
