My hard drive space is adequate with at least 50% space available on the partition where /var lives. There are 2 versions of python installed but 2.6.5-r1 is the active one. dev-lang/python: 2.6.5-r1, 3.1.2-r2 The Portage version is 2.1.8.3. I have attached results of my emerge --info for reference also. I am very perplexed about this especially since I had not made any changes to my systems. Recall that this happened to all 3 of my Gentoo installs, not on just one. One install is on a different computer. The 2 on the same computer use different partitions. I estimate the problem began about 2 weeks ago, but I can't be sure. I am aware that not all emerged packages generate error, log or warn messages. I just realized that nothing was being written to /var/log/portage/elog on any of my 3 Gentoo installs. Then I noticed that duplicate emerge logs were being written to /var/log/portage for each package that was emerge with # uNDv world. I had never seen that before. I suspect that some package that was emerged approximately 2 weeks ago has caused this change, but I still haven't found what has happened. If this were only on one of my Gentoo installs, I would suspect something with that computer. But when I update with -uNDv world, I do it on all 3 the same day. Now all 3 have the same identical problem. For what it is worth, I am the only one with access to these computers so I know it is nothing I have done. I must have missed some message or warning. Also, when I do the # emerge -uNDv world, and the emerge finishes, there are no errors reported in the Terminal - just a clean finish. I have seen some posts on the forums about people having problems with this: PORTAGE_ELOG_SYSTEM="save mail" However, I don't use mail there - my entry in /etc/make.conf is: PORTAGE_ELOG_SYSTEM="save" I wonder if this could be a portage issue - maybe I should downgrade to a previous portage version. This is all very strange to me. Thanks again. billyd --Boundary-00=_3ol0Li/K8hkPQ6j Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"; name="emerge_info.txt" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="emerge_info.txt" Portage 2.1.8.3 (default/linux/amd64/10.0/no-multilib, gcc-4.4.3, glibc-2.1= 1-r1, 2.6.33-gentoo-r1 x86_64) =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D System uname: Linux-2.6.33-gentoo-r1-x86_64-Intel-R-_Core-TM-_i7_CPU_920_@_= 2.67GHz-with-gentoo-2.0.1 Timestamp of tree: Fri, 23 Apr 2010 15:15:03 +0000 app-shells/bash: 4.1_p5 dev-lang/python: 2.6.5-r1, 3.1.2-r2 dev-util/cmake: 2.8.1-r1 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.0.1 sys-apps/openrc: 0.6.1-r1 sys-apps/sandbox: 2.2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.65 sys-devel/automake: 1.8.5-r4, 1.9.6-r3, 1.10.3, 1.11.1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.20.1 sys-devel/gcc: 4.4.3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1 sys-devel/libtool: 2.2.6b virtual/os-headers: 2.6.33 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=3D"amd64 ~amd64" ACCEPT_LICENSE=3D"* -@EULA" CBUILD=3D"x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS=3D"-O2 -march=3Dcore2 -msse4 -pipe" CHOST=3D"x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT=3D"/etc /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK=3D"/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/fonts/font= s.conf /etc/gconf /etc/gentoo-release /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /e= tc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS=3D"-O2 -march=3Dcore2 -msse4 -pipe" DISTDIR=3D"/usr/portage/distfiles" =46EATURES=3D"assume-digests distlocks fixpackages news parallel-fetch prot= ect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-logs unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS=3D"http://gentoo.chem.wisc.edu/gentoo/ http://gentoo.osuosl.= org/ http://gentoo.cites.uiuc.edu/pub/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.ussg.iu.edu/pub/lin= ux/gentoo http://gentoo.mirrors.pair.com/ http://gentoo.mirrors.tds.net/gen= too http://gentoo.mirrors.easynews.com/linux/gentoo/ " LANG=3D"en_US.UTF-8" LDFLAGS=3D"-Wl,-O1" LINGUAS=3D"en" MAKEOPTS=3D"-j5" PKGDIR=3D"/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT=3D"/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS=3D"--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --co= mpress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=3D180 --exclude=3D/d= istfiles --exclude=3D/local --exclude=3D/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR=3D"/var/tmp" PORTDIR=3D"/usr/portage" SYNC=3D"rsync://192.168.1.15/gentoo-portage" USE=3D"X a52 aac aalib acl acpi alsa amd64 apm audiofile berkdb branding bz= ip2 cairo cdr cli cracklib cups cxx dbus dri dvd dvdr dvdread exif ffmpeg f= lac foomaticdb fortran gdbm gif glib glitz gnutls gpm hal iconv imlib ipv6 = jpeg jpeg2k kde lcms libcaca libnotify libwww logrotate lzma mad mikmod mmx= mng modules mp3 mp4 mpeg mudflap mysql ncurses nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin = nvidia ogg opengl openmp pam pcre pdf perl plasma png ppds python qt3suppor= t qt4 quicktime readline reflection sdl semantic-desktop session smp sndfil= e spell spl sql sqlite sse sse2 sse3 sse4 ssl startup-notification svg sysf= s tcl tcpd tiff tk truetype type1 udev unicode usb vorbis webkit x264 xine = xml xorg xscreensaver xulrunner xv xvid zlib" ALSA_CARDS=3D"hda-intel" ALSA= _PCM_PLUGINS=3D"adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file = hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul mulaw multi null p= lug rate route share shm softvol" ELIBC=3D"glibc" INPUT_DEVICES=3D"evdev ke= yboard mouse" KERNEL=3D"linux" LCD_DEVICES=3D"ncurses text" LINGUAS=3D"en" = RUBY_TARGETS=3D"ruby18" SANE_BACKENDS=3D"hp" USERLAND=3D"GNU" VIDEO_CARDS= =3D"nv vesa nvidia"=20 Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, FFLAGS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_AL= L, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS, PORT= DIR_OVERLAY --Boundary-00=_3ol0Li/K8hkPQ6j--
