 Posted: Tue Sep 16, 2008 10:43 am Post subject: problems with world file? |
 |
|
Hi,
I\'ve been informed by portage that there are problems with my world file, but I can\'t seem to fix them....
| Code: |
# emerge -uDNa world
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
Total: 0 packages, Size of downloads: 0 kB
!!! Problems have been detected with your world file
!!! Please run emaint --check world
# emaint --check world
Checking world for problems
100% [========================================================================>]
Finished
# emaint --fix world
Attempting to fix world
100% [========================================================================>]
Finished
# emerge -uDNa world
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
Total: 0 packages, Size of downloads: 0 kB
!!! Problems have been detected with your world file
!!! Please run emaint --check world
|
emaint isn\'t reporting or fixing any errors, so beyond sitting down and visually checking that everything in my /var/lib/portage/world file is still valid in portage how can I determine what portage is worrying about?

Thanks for those pointers, I now vaguely remember using regenworld a few years back, obviously didn\'t stick in my mind though.
regenworld currently crashes and qpkg doesn\'t play ball either
| Code: |
fisher neil # regenworld
add to world: sys-apps/pciutils
add to world: sys-fs/xfsprogs
add to world: sys-fs/reiserfsprogs
add to world: x11-base/xorg-server
add to world: x11-wm/fluxbox
add to world: gnome-base/gdm
add to world: app-editors/emacs-cvs
add to world: net-p2p/museek+
add to world: app-portage/portage-utils
add to world: net-print/cups
add to world: x11-misc/xscreensaver
add to world: dev-libs/glib
add to world: media-gfx/gimp

add to world: x11-libs/cairo
add to world: app-text/hunspell
add to world: dev-java/java-config
add to world: dev-java/bsh
Traceback (most recent call last):

raise InvalidAtom(s)
portage.exception.InvalidAtom: =null/postgresql
fisher neil # qpkg -I -nc > /root/backup/world.new
qpkg: invalid option -- \'I\'
|
...but I\'ll play around with equery to get a list of packages and strip out the versions.
Will post deatils of the eventual solution.
Cheers,
slack

I\'m still having problems with this.
I\'ve tried running emaint (as portage now advises), but portage still reports a problem with my world file...
| Code: |
# emaint --check world
Checking world for problems
100% [========================================================================>]
Finished
# emaint --fix world
Attempting to fix world
100% [========================================================================>]
Finished
fisher backup # emerge -uDNa world
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

[0] /usr/portage
!!! Problems have been detected with your world file
!!! Please run emaint --check world
|
Its rather frustrating, I\'ve used \'equery -C -q list\' to get a list of all packages, but the problem is that a) its too long ; b) I\'ve not sussed out a regexp to remove all the versions. But b) is kind of irrelevant as I dont 1305 packages listed in my world file, which currently has some 230 entries. Besides many of those returned by equery are in system/dependncies pulled in anyway so don\'t belong in world.
Is this a bug in portage (current version is 2.2_rc11) or do I genuinely have a corrupt world file (which I\'ve copied below)?

Ahh, thats a neat trick I hadn\'t even thought of 
Tried it out and got the following, repeated a few times (not shown) and removed other packages for which ebuilds no longer exist, then repeated the emaint --fix world, but no joy. I\'m still being told by portage that there are errors in my world file
| Code: |
# emerge -p $(< /var/lib/portage/world)
WARNING: repository at /usr/local/portage/hugin is missing a repo_name entry
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy \"media-gfx/gimp-lqr-plugin\".
...
fisher neil # emerge -uDNa world

I've the same problem... And emerge -uDNpv @world @system takes bloody ages to produce any result. Plus, it told me that app-emulation/wine does not have an ebuild - which it does.

I did fix this but I'm afraid I can't for the life of me remember how, sorry for being tardy and not posting details at the time.

Same here. I updated python the other day and I think that is when this started. Could python being updated cause this?

Sorry to re-post so quick but I re-emerged portage and it seems to have fixed it. Could someone test this on their box and see if it helps?
