I don't know the portage internals well enough even to know if my following suggestion is good or bad (and I wonder why isn't your profiles directory updated by the sync?), but the troublemaking change is probably the one unmade by this: http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/profiles/updates/2Q-2009?r1=1.24r2=1.25 So, if you're feeling lucky (and nothing else works nor you get any better advice), you can try removing the reddened line out of your /usr/portage/profiles/updates/2Q-2009 (I'd make a backup copy before editing). -- Arttu V.

As soon as it finds a profile update it can't handle it aborts whatever it's about to do, even if that's syncing. I got out of this on one box by copying over the profiles from another box that wasn't affected. Then a --sync brought it all back into line. -- Rgds Peter
