Hello,

whenever I run emerge it aborts with the following error message:

localhost # emerge --sync

Performing Global Updates: /usr/portage/profiles/updates/3Q-2006
(Could take a couple of minutes if you have a lot of binary packages.)
  .='update pass'  *='binary update'  @='/var/db move'
  s='/var/db SLOT move' S='binary SLOT move' 
p='update /etc/portage/package.*'
........

    os.rename(self.name, self._real_name)

I have no clue how to solve this problem, so any help would be greatly 
appreciated!

Kind regards
