[gentoo-user] Broken sys-apps/portage-2.1.2_pre3-r6

[Pawel Kraszewski]

Hello!

 I found broken sys-apps/portage-2.1.2_pre3-r6 (at least on ~amd64). After
an upgrade to this version the portage system went crazy. First of all, it
barked that it can't see gcc. Second, it said plenty of ebuild files are
broken. Third - it couldn't --sync again.

 I downloaded binary sys-apps/portage-2.1.2_pre3-r5 from my home computer,
overwritten faulty one with "tar -xj" and it started working again. Then 
masked sys-apps/portage-2.1.2_pre3-r6 and re-emerged portage. Now everything 
is fine.

 I'll file a bug later this day, stating config and exact error messages.

# emerge --version
Portage 2.1.2_pre3-r6 (default-linux/amd64/2006.1/desktop, 
gcc-4.1.1/amd64-vanilla, glibc-2.5-r0, 2.6.19-rc2-mm1 x86_64)

is working fine here
did you do an `emerge --metadata` after upgrading portage?
