After upgrading to portage 2.0.49-r17 emerge and ebuild bales out with the
message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1784, in ?
ip=socket.gethostbyname(hostname)
NameError: name 'socket' is not defined
Obviously installing an earlier version of portage won't work.
Quick and not so dirty fix:
Change line 6 in /usr/bin/emerge from
import os,sys
to
import os,sys,socket
....and think of how severe this would be if GENTOO weren't an open-source
system and if /usr/bin/emerge were a binary file and not written in python.
