I came across several people having experienced this problem, but I couldn't find one that had a fix, other than just reinstalling, which isn't a fix. I tried to emerge lyx, walked away, came back and the computer had ran out of ram, swap and had stopped responding. I reset the computer. Now emerge (portage version 1.8.19) doesn't work. Emerge any package prints out one line, then sandbox (from top) takes up 99% of the CPU and starts to suck up RAM resources. So I added FEATURES="-sandbox" to make.conf. Now everything looks like it's working, but every package errors out with: Code: | >>> Merging foo-bar/gen-app2.4.2 to /
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1314, in ?

I've tried to untar the rescue portage and that didn't help. I can't emerge anything to try to fix it. Has anyone been able to fix this? I'm almost totally satisfied with my setup. Enough that if I can't figure this out I'll probably just hand install everything from now on, but it kind of defeats the purpose. Anyways, any help would be appreciated. |

Perhaps someone can send me the /usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py and /usr/lib/portage/bin/emerge files off their system and I can run a diff on them and see what's changed from what I have? Don't know if this will help, but this is super frustrating and I'm grasping now. A lot of mentions of the problem from other people, yet no fixes.
