You really need to tell us more about your system. What did you do preceding this?

I know, I haven't updated for a while. I was trying to update Portage, and coreutils was listed as the necessary package to emerge first.
What's the output of `emerge -pv coreutils`?
Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild N ] sys-apps/coreutils-6.4 -acl +nls (-selinux) -static 0 kB
please show the output of either `equery check coreutils` or `qcheck coreutils`.
BLANK. I ran it, and it doesn't give any output at all. Denis
