Hi.
What does the /var/db/pkg directory hold?
I used butter fingers and beer to `rm -rf` it.
I was sorta in the middle of an `emerge -uDN world` when I did it.
Now portage is giving me:
| Code: |
gentoo ~ # emerge portage
Calculating dependencies... done!

Anyone know the best way to go about fixing this?
I've searched high and low trying to find something to read about this but haven't found anything pertinent. |
