I had the same problem. What I've done is to remove ~x86 from mythtv in
/etc/portage/package.keywords and then rerun the python updater on the
older stable mythtv version (0.21_p18314-r1). The compile completed
successfully.

[gentoo-user] emerge mythtv fails

[Shawn Haggett]

Some recent updates have broken my mythtv (missing libraries) so I'm of course 
trying to recompile it. Whenever I try however, the following happens:

sgc ~ # emerge -va mythtv

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

sgc ~ #         


The error seems to be in the line: 
/var/tmp/portage/media-tv/mythtv-0.21_p18314-r1/temp/environment: line 3924: 
cd: /var/tmp/portage/media-tv/mythtv-0.21_p18314-r1/work/branches/release-0-21-fixes/mythtv: 
No such file or directory

There's a folder missing somewhere, and when I look, sure enough:

sgc ~ # ls /var/tmp/portage/media-tv/mythtv-0.21_p18314-r1/work/
mythtv-0.21_p18314
sgc ~ #  

It seems the work folder has a 'mythtv-0.21_p18314' folder, which has the 
branches folder inside that.

This has been broken for over a week now (normally I just wait, resync and 
these things go away if they're an ebuild problem) but I'm starting to think 
it's a problem on my end. Anyone have any suggestions on how to track down 
where the error is coming from. It the environment file, but I'm not sure if 
that's a distributed file, or generated by portage (I suspect the later). So 
where does that file get its contents from?

Thanks
Shawn

I just had the same problem with a fresh install of mythtv. I tried other 
versions, 0.21_p19961-r2 showed the same problem, but 0.21_p20877 did 
compile. So give that one a try.

No idea where the exact problem lies, I did not even use mythtv yet. Other 
things to do first.

Now python-updater wants to rebuild mythtv, and fails to do so because of 
the missing version.pro. Same version which built before. The ebuild's date 
is from july 20th, some days before I emerged it, so there was no silent 
change.

Strange. But for the moment I don't care, no time yet to play with mythtv.

BTW, the expected .../work/mythtv-0.21_p20877/version.pro can be found in 
.../work/branches/release-0-21-fixes/mythtv/version.pro.

I've been dealing with this failure for a couple of weeks now. Nothing
new released to address it yet even though it seems there might be
some sort of a fix pending, or even possibly released (as per the last
couple of entries) but for me p20877 still doesn't build:
