Re: [gentoo-user] baselayout -- openrc ?

You're probably thinking of this:

It's a relatively rare bug, but it is quite annoying when it does happen.

Well, if you were running portage-2-2_rc67, that's already pretty much
bleeding edge =P

But just out of curiosity, though, is there any particular reason
you're not running a more-stable version of Portage, such as v2.1.8.3
or v2.1.9.17? The 2.2 release-candidates are hard-masked for a reason
- which includes things randomly breaking, such as this unmerge issue
you experienced.

 solve my problem. I can unmerge again. :-)

Have you tried upgrading to the latest version of Portage 2.2? The
newest version in the tree is currently portage-2.2_rc95, while you're
still using portage-2.2_rc67. Perhaps there's a bug causing this that
was fixed in subsequent release?
