[SOLVED] EAPI=0 /etc/portage/make.profile issue

[redwood]

Trying to upgrade my system.
Did a "rm -rf /usr/portage" and "emerge --sync"

Code: Select all

Portage 2.3.87 (python 3.4.8-final-0, default/linux/amd64/17.0/desktop/plasma, gcc-8.2.0, glibc-2.27-r6, 4.19.27-gentoo-r1 x86_64)

Head commit of repository gentoo: 32f2be0183d317b61de3343c55c304683b89893b

Then trying to "emerge -1v portage"
but get errors like the following:

Code: Select all

--- Invalid atom in /usr/portage/profiles/targets/desktop/plasma/package.use: Slot deps are not allowed in EAPI 0: 'dev-qt/qtsql:5'

But this is my /etc/portage/make.profile link:

Code: Select all

#eselect profile show
Current /etc/portage/make.profile symlink:
  default/linux/amd64/17.0/desktop/plasma

#ls -l /etc/portage/make.profile
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 61 Feb  5 11:37 /etc/portage/make.profile -> /usr/portage/profiles/default/linux/amd64/17.0/desktop/plasma

Thanks for any help.

Decided to

Code: Select all

rm -r /usr/portage/*; rm -r /usr/portage/.git

Then restore from backup

Code: Select all

cp -a /root/.snapshots/daily.1/usr/portage/* /usr/portage/

Now re-emerging portage then gentoolkit

After that will try

Code: Select all

emerge --sync; eix-update

Code: Select all

For anybody who keeps /usr/portage on a separate Logical Volume, what's a good size for the LV? Mine is 10G with about 84% used. Is that normal using a git repo for portage?

Got an error during

Code: Select all

emerge --sync

Code: Select all

error: The following untracked working tree files would be overwritten by merge:
	acct-group/adm/adm-0.ebuild
	acct-group/adm/metadata.xml
	acct-group/amule/amule-0.ebuild
	acct-group/amule/metadata.xml
	acct-group/asterisk/asterisk-0.ebuild
	acct-group/asterisk/metadata.xml
	acct-group/audio/audio-0.ebuild
	acct-group/audio/metadata.xml
	acct-group/automx2/automx2-0.ebuild
	acct-group/automx2/metadata.xml
	acct-group/avahi-autoipd/avahi-autoipd-0.ebuild
	acct-group/avahi-autoipd/metadata.xml
...

Aborting
!!! git merge error in /usr/portage
q: Updating ebuild cache for /usr/portage ...
q: Finished 25701 entries in 2.000363 seconds
[/code]

So did

Code: Select all

rm -r /usr/portage/acct-group

And another

Code: Select all

emerge --sync

which failed on merging /usr/portage/acct-user/
so removed /usr/portage/acct-user/
then "emerge --sync" failed on merging more untracked working tree files which would be overwritten.

Maybe I missed these changes to repos:
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Portage/Sync

Anyhow, I followed suggestion for /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo
using rsync method and location of /var/db/repos/gentoo

So wiped /usr/portage logical volume clean and remounted at /var/db/repos/gentoo
and for good measure set PORTDIR=/var/db/repos/gentoo in /etc/portage/make.conf

Then synced with

Code: Select all

emaint sync -r gentoo

Code: Select all

df -h /var/db/repos/gentoo
Filesystem                Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/raid-portage  9.8G  294M  9.0G   4% /var/db/repos/gentoo

Then ran eix-update
Then ran

Code: Select all

emerge -1uv portage; emerge -1uv gentoolkit

SUCCESS!!
