I just used 'emerge depclean' to clean out packages which aren't needed any longer, but depclean now has unmerged sh-utils too, so I can't merge anything now, not even sh-utils. this happened as i didn't check exactly what i unmerged and didn't watch the progress.
so, what can I do to get basic sh commands again (mkdir, cp, mv, rm...)
Had this damn problem too. Boot from live cd, then mount your gentoo partition and copy the binaries, which you need.
#yes n | cp /bin/* /mnt/gentoo/bin/
Then rebuild everything you've lost due to depclean. No brainer but helps ;)
