[gentoo-user] preprocess_ebuild_env error

[Guanqun Lu]

Hi list,

When I am trying to unmerge xorg-server, it complains as such:

/var/tmp/binpkgs/x11-base/xorg-server-1.4-r2/temp/environment: line 4035: syntax error near unexpected token `('
/var/tmp/binpkgs/x11-base/xorg-server-1.4-r2/temp/environment: line 4035: `    done <<(eval ${command})'
 ^[[31;01m*^[[0m

 ^[[31;01m*^[[0m  The die message:

 ^[[31;01m*^[[0m If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant.

So, any idea?

Thanks in advance.

Just a shot in the dark: try --sync'ing your tree. I can't see
xorg-server-1.4-r2 in Portage, it's probably some old, broken version.
