aye, this is an issue with portage, perhaps try

Code: Select all

emerge --sync && magic

its an issue with the package virtual/libintl-0


although for that package version 0 is the only one found

I look for portage in the forums and I found some things like this:

unlink /etc/make.profile
ln -s /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2005.0/ /etc/make.profile

i try with all the versions 2005.1, 2005.0 and 2006.0 , none of tem works.

I try:

emerge --sync && magic , i got the same error.

I forward the port 2000,but magic is still telling me to Check my network settings.

Anyone can help me?

try installing a portage snapshot



reference: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/h ... ng_portage
http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/gentoo/ ... st.tar.bz2
note, examples shown are from a chroot environment
so backup your /usr/portage directory

extract the portage-*.tar.bz2 to / (i think) to get a snapshot from the web


my filesystem got screwed somehow the past few weeks and i had been delaying reintsalling, but in light of this ill give it a try and see if i run across any problems with Pro 2.0a and magic/emerge --sync

This is the same problem as I am having, I'm following the guide to do a fully native install and when it comes to running the magic command it gets to 88% then fails with the error message listed in the posts at the top of this topic.

I shouldn't have any network seurity getting in the way as i've got my xbox in my DMZ for the meantime, i've also tried to download the latest portage snapshot and extract that into the correct folder, this has made no difference, it still fails at 88%.

What else can I try?

did you run out of free space?

you could download a portage snapshot from one of the mirrors


you could try websync instead of emerge to update portage

Hey guys.

N00b here, but I got it too.

Just says to report it, so I did.. :-)

Im not sure how to rectify it, but Ive had no problems in the past running magic.

This is the first problem Ive had.

PS. Mine is not a native install and still have over 1gb free space

I´ve got it working

Post by elreyfedo@yahoo.es »

It is a problem about the portage that is out of date.


I emerge portage:

Code: Select all

emerge portage
Do not update portage runing emerge -u portage or emerge --update portage

After emerge portage maybe you will get a message telling you that you got some config files out of date, to update this file follow the instruction.
the instructions tell you to run a command for help.
Maybe you will have to do a different thing but i did the following:

I modified the file /etc/make.conf
adding this line

Code: Select all

 
CONFIG_PROTECT="-*"
and after this I run 'emerge portage' again. This update this config files, after this i comment the line , adding a # .This is to get this file protected again.

Code: Select all

#CONFIG_PROTECT="-*"
After this I do not get any error.

I explain this for newbies because I am one.
I hope this work for you.

You should not change the CONFIG_PROTECT variable, instead use etc-update.

Can anyone that was having this problem confirm whether it is fixed yet or not?

I am about to install a larger primary drive into my xbox and would prefer to move over to a Native Gentoox install rather than my current Xebian and would rather not waste several hours finding out it still isn't going to have it.

this is an issue with needing to update portage, not magic
