hi
after a fresh gentoo install, I'm trying to install "terminator" and after setting new use flags:
    cairo, gtk3, python

and running
Code:
emerge --update --deep --newuse world

afterwards, I get the following error message:

I've just seen this thread:
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-905950-start-0.html

but
Code:
 emerge --sync
doesn't solve the problem.
output of
Code:
emerge --info '=media-fonts/urw-fonts-2.4.9'

first: sorry for not posting in "programming and portage". in the heat of the battle I thought it has something to do with installing...

well this is at least the fifth time I do a reinstall and never occured such a strange problem. on my other machine
Code:
media-fonts/urw-fonts-2.4.9

was installed without problems and now its an *.rpm file..!?
anyway after sweating and crying I've managed to convert the file with
Code:
rpm2tar

then I've installed it normaly.
So I'm fine after spending the whole sunday with our beloved distribution, at least for the moment... :D

no worries. moved :)

(sorry i have no idea about your issue - if the ebuild is looking for tar, but the package is an rpm, the ebuild is broken and someone must fix it!)

LoTeK ... for whatever reason your missing app-arch/rpm2targz or the binary/link (/usr/bin/rpm2tar -> rpm2targz) is broken ... this package is a dependency for media-fonts/urw-fonts so it should be installed prior:

Code:
# equery depends app-arch/rpm2targz
 * These packages depend on app-arch/rpm2targz:
media-fonts/urw-fonts-2.4.9 (>=app-arch/rpm2targz-9.0.0.3g)

So, I would perhaps 'emerge --oneshot rpm2targz' and see if this fixes it. Also, as rpm2targz is not only for tgz but lzma, bzip2, etc, perhaps the difference between your respective machines is one has app-arch/xz-utils and the problem machine not (though I can't say for sure as I'm not sure what format the src.rpm is in).

best ... khay
