python-updater //usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages messag

[ds123]

I upgraded to python 2.5 on a system and all appeared to be normal as far as the upgrade. Then, I ran python-updater and everything appeared to be running smoothly except for the final step on each package.

The following is a typical sample:

Code: Select all

 * Performing Python Module Cleanup .. ...
 * Cleaning orphaned Python bytecode from /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages ..
 * Cleaning orphaned Python bytecode from /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages ..
 * Cleaning orphaned Python bytecode from /usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages ..
 * Cleaning orphaned Python bytecode from /usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages ..         [ ok ]
 * Updating twisted plugin cache...
>>> Original instance of package unmerged safely.
 * //usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/twisted-web doesn't exist!
 * Byte compiling python modules for python-2.5 .. ...                                  [ ok ]
 * Updating twisted plugin cache...
>>> dev-python/twisted-web-0.6.0 merged.

>>> No packages selected for removal by clean
>>> Auto-cleaning packages...

>>> No outdated packages were found on your system.

Note double / in the front. I have been looking around a bit to discover where a doubled up slash might be found. It must be some common place to all the installations, since it happened for all of them. So far, I've checked sym links and set variables, but nothing obvious has appeared.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks very much.

I am still having a problem and have been unable to solve it.

I had been holding off rebooting, because I still had a number of programs running on that system, but finally I did and, naturally, the python stuff is failing now.

I have now tried rolling back to python 2.4 by reemerging it and changing the sym links in /usr/bin for python. I then tried remerging the failed python related packages and am still getting failures

For example, here are the last few lines showing this package being installed.

Code: Select all

There were no error messages prior to that.

There is something wrong in setup information for python, but I'm not sure where to look or how to evaluate it. I have tried other non-python emerges and they work just fine. I would like to delete python and start from scratch, although, of course, I know that would kill not just portage, but other things as well.

If someone is more familiar with the setup information for python, please give me a few ideas here.

Thanks

Its not because of the update to python-2.5, I dont think. I've been using 2.5 for many months, but I notice the same warnings as you now that I updated to gcc-4.3.1 and started rebuilding my entire system. Maybe its a bug in portage.
