I was silly and used "eselect profile" after the instllation and this seems to have broken the instllation. I tried to fix it by having "$EPREFIX/etc/make.profile" point to "$EPREFIX/usr/portage/profiles/prefix/linux/amd64". However, now portage tries to install masked packages, e.g., emerge -a portage .. [ebuild N *] sys-apps/sandbox-2.5 USE="(-multilib)" [ebuild U *] sys-apps/portage-9999 [2.2.01.19295] USE="-python2% -python3%" The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed: #required by sys-apps/portage-9999, required by portage (argument) >=sys-apps/sandbox-2.5 ** #required by portage (argument) >=sys-apps/portage-9999 ** On the other hand, if I set "EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--autounmask=n" all versions of portage seem to be masked. I have not manually unmasked or masked any packages and have no idea why this is happening. Any tips on how to fix this are greatly appreciated. Martin
