Subject: [gentoo-user] emerge --sync fails with CacheCorruption
Date: Mon, 22 Oct 2007 18:11:41 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49bf44f10710221811n546a81e8ja34ff47987326ee9@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Whenever I try to emerge --sync my laptop it fails like this:

>>> Updating Portage cache:   18%Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 6474, in ?
    retval = emerge_main()
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 6429, in emerge_main
    action_sync(settings, trees, mtimedb, myopts, myaction)
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 4942, in action_sync

    try:        entry = src_cache[x]
  File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/cache/metadata.py", line 32, in __getitem__
    return flat_hash.database.__getitem__(self, cpv)
  File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/cache/flat_hash.py", line 38, in __getitem__
    raise cache_errors.CacheCorruption(cpv, e)
cache.cache_errors.CacheCorruption: dev-games/ode-0.8 is corrupt:
[Errno 5] Input/output error

I thought it was disc space but I have plenty.
