Not much help there.
Then I tried emerge -pvDuN world to see what state I left things after
the last sync and get lots of messages like these:
!!! A file is not listed in the Manifest:
'/usr/portage/dev-libs/openssl/openssl-0.9.8e-r2.ebuild'
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "dev-libs/openssl" have been

your request:

- dev-libs/openssl-0.9.8e-r3 (masked by: corruption)
Clearly the machine is unhappy about something.
emerge -pv portage does this:
<SNIP>
\!!! A file is not listed in the Manifest:

I tried emerge -pv system and get a failure at the end that says:
(dependency required by "dev-lang/python-2.4.4-r6" [ebuild])
!!! Problem resolving dependencies for dev-lang/python
!!! Depgraph creation failed.
I'm not at all clear how to proceed as I've never had a Gentoo machine
do anything like this.
Any ideas much appreciated. I've been googling but haven't found a
great answer yet.
Thanks in advance.
