i was doing an emerge --update world, when this error surfaced.
please help me

I've got exactly the same error. I'm very anxious to find out how to fix it.

[dusik]

Possibly to do with this [bug=114906]this bug[/bug] (and this [topic=411833]topic[/topic])? I'm trying to sort out a similar issue right now, but it looks like it's best to just stick with an older version of fglrx for the time being...

[dusik]

Actually, I just emerged *-r3 of the package, and it worked fine. Don't know what the problem was, but maybe it was fixed in rev 3. Give it a shot.

[fist_boy]

i'm going to try to rsync, and do the update world again. i'll send a report on what happens

[dusik]

fist_boy asked me how I managed to get *-r3.

Actually, that's a very good question.

http://packages.gentoo.org/search/?sstring=ati-drivers doesn't show a 8.18.8-r3 at the moment, so maybe it didn't work right and they took it out? 8.14.13-r3 is listed as stable, so maybe that's what I emerged, but that doesn't make sense, why I tried 8.18.8-r2 and it failed, and then I rsync'ed, and then I tried again and it did *something*-r3 and it was a lower version???

Right now my girlfriend is booted into Windows on that machine playing The Sims so I can't check, but I'll investigate this evening and post what I *actually* have. I hope I didn't give any misinformation. Oops

[dusik]

Sorry, this is a bit late, but I've got 8.14.13-r3 installed.
