[gentoo-user] portage blocking bash -- how to fix?

[gentoo-user] portage blocking bash -- how to fix?

[John covici]

On my laptop, I did emerge sync and it said to emerge portage,
however when I tried to do this I got the following:


These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies  ..... ..\b\b... done!

[ebuild     U ] sys-apps/sandbox-1.2.18.1-r2 [1.2.17] 232 kB

[ebuild     U ] sys-apps/portage-2.1.4.4 [2.1.2.7] USE="doc* -build -epydoc (-selinux)" LINGUAS="-pl" 368 kB 
*** Portage will stop merging at this point and reload itself,
    then resume the merge.

Total: 4 packages (4 upgrades, 1 block), Size of downloads: 3,313 kB

My emerge --info follows:

Thanks in advance for a solution to this one -- I didn't dare delete
portage which is what I normally do if a package is blocking
something.

I tried that and it still says portage is blocking.

I did that emerge, but it still gives me the same blocks message as
though I had not done the emerge.  Very strange.

But I did emerge --nodeps portage and that did fix the problem.  Then
I emerged it again to get the dependencies.

Thanks all for your help.
