Otherwise I would have done this already :-) I've appended the trace output at the end. This sure revealed the pro- blem: skimming upward from the call to "die" in line ">196:" one can see the script trying in line ">>>129:" to extract lines matching "^x86_64" from "/var/db/repos/gentoo/profiles/profiles.desc". However, there are none. Skimming farther upward reveals the string "x86_64" being derived in line ">>>>33:" from environment variable "ARCH" which is defined in my shell initialization scripts: export ARCH=$({ arch || uname -m || echo unknown ; } 2> /dev/null) But the only architectures supported by my "profiles.desc" file are: $ gawk '! /^#|^$/ { print $1 } ' /var/db/repos/gentoo/profiles/profiles.desc | sort -u alpha amd64 amd64-linux arm arm-linux arm64 arm64-linux arm64-macos hppa ia64 loong m68k mips ppc ppc-macos ppc64 ppc64-linux riscv riscv-linux s390 sparc sparc-solaris sparc64-solaris x64-cygwin x64-macos x64-solaris x64-winnt x86 x86-linux x86-solaris x86-winnt $ So what is causing this? Why is environment variable "ARCH" expected to have a value different from "$(arch)"? In fact, running $ ARCH= eselect profile list [1] default/linux/amd64/17.1 (stable) ... [35] default/linux/amd64/17.0/musl/hardened/selinux (exp) $ succeeds, which is slightly puzzling, at least for me :-/ But if that's the way it has to be, I can live with it by just setting my "eselect" alias to "eselect='ARCH= eselect --color=no'", which works.

A while after hav- ing traced this problem down, I faintly remembered that in ma early Gen- too days I had a similar problem with "eix". In both cases the depen- dance on environment variable "ARCH" is not documented in the respec- tive manual pages, and therefore it is in particular not pointed out that Portage is using a different convention from the "arch" command for naming hardware architectures. So it's probably not a bug in the code, but rather "just" missing pre- cision in the documentation -- and my personal experience is that such things will hardly ever be corrected, because the REAL bugs in the code just have higher priority :-/ Sincerely, Rainer ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread

I'm still baffled as to how/why my profile got changed in the first place. I've got another minor complaint, but that'll be a separate thread. -- I've seen things, you people wouldn't believe; Gopher, Netscape with frames, the first Browser Wars.
