While updating my system, I received the following message.... >>> Auto-cleaning packages ... ['dev-perl/XML-Parser', '2.30', 'r0'] ['dev-perl/XML-Parser-2.30', 'dev-perl/XML-Parser-2.31-r1'] !!! COUNTER file is missing for dev-perl/XML-Parser-2.30 in /var/db. !!! Please run /usr/lib/portage/bin/fix-db.pl or !!! Please run /usr/lib/portage/bin/fix-db.py or !!! remerge the package.
After running /usr/lib/portage/bin/fix-db.py, I was presented with a huge list of entries. I am unseure what I should be doing about this as some of the entries that are mentioned are indeed current... for instance... app-portage/gentoolkit-0.1.6: (old package) [emerge/delete] SLOT is empty but I have 0.1.31 installed. and when i try running /usr/lib/portage/bin/fix-db.pl instead, I get fix-db: fatal: couldn't open /var/db/pkg/app-admin/sysklogd-1.4.1-r2/CONTENTS well.. that version isn't installed... r7 is... What should I do to clear up all these issues? Thanks Bryan -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
