[gentoo-dev] Install errors

[gentoo-dev] Install errors

[Thomas Draney]

i felt brave today and burned the newest release on a
cd and went at it.  Didnt do too bad until the
bootstrap part.  I type in #cd /usr/portage then
#scripts/bootstrap.sh.  It went for about 5 seconds
and gave me some strange errors probably due to my
missing something somewhere but I am not sure.

It states something about [mykey] and keys in lines
something like 492 or 482 of possibly python if i was
reading it right.  Is there anything I can do to get
past this part or fix it or what did I do wrong?  

Thanks for your help and keep up the good work.  If it
turns out as nice as the idea looks right now it will
be great.  Thanks again.

Your problem is with your /etc/make.conf file most likely.
There was someone else on this list who had the same problem about a 
week ago. You probably accidently uncommented something that was just 
that, a comment, not a commented-out variable, like USE, CHOST, 
CXXFLAGS, CFLAGS

Type the following to see:
grep -v \# /etc/make.conf | grep [a-z]
This command should return something similar to:

USE="slang readline gpm berkdb gdbm tcpd pam libwww ssl alsa nls mitshm 
perl python esd gif sdl vorbis ogg gtk X opengl mozilla mmx 3dnow sse 
java postgres ldap lame bonobo aalib oss libg++"
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CFLAGS="-mcpu=athlon -march=athlon -O3 -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="-mcpu=athlon -march=athlon -O3 -pipe"

If you get anything other than CAPITALWORD="text text" It's probably a 
comment, and should be commented with a # in front of it.
