I updated to the latest Gentoo Sources kernel and reinstalled
vmware-modules. This ended up causing a kernel panic.

No sure what happened with the merge of vmware-modules, but it looks
like something got corrupted. Here is what I get now when I try to
reinstall vmware-modules again (or anything else for that matter):

cave resolve vmware-modules
Deciding: 2 steps, 4 metadata (4 vmware)


Error:
  * In program cave resolve vmware-modules:
  * When resolving and adding dependencies recursively:
  * When deciding upon an origin ID to use for
'app-emulation/vmware-modules:0::(install_to_slash)':

  * Name '' is not a valid category name part (paludis::CategoryNamePartError)

I've tried running cave fix-cache as well as cave generate-metadata
and I'm out of ideas at this point.

Thanks,
Jason Komar
