Hi!

Thank every one for your help.

Finally I got it out this way:
first  emerge --nodeps bash
then  emerge portage  upgraded portage to the latest version
and then, of cause,  emerge -uDN system -pvt
it had blocked packages
[blocks B ] <sys-apps/man-pages-3 ("<sys-apps/man-pages-3" is blocking
sys-apps/man-pages-posix-2003a)
[blocks B ] <sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.41 ("<sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.41" is blocking
sys-libs/e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.3-r1)
[blocks B     ] sys-apps/mktemp ("sys-apps/mktemp" is blocking
sys-apps/coreutils-7.1)
[blocks B     ] sys-libs/com_err ("sys-libs/com_err" is blocking
sys-libs/e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.3-r1)
[blocks B ] <sys-apps/util-linux-2.13 ("<sys-apps/util- linux-2.13" is
blocking sys-apps/coreutils-7.1)
[blocks B     ] sys-libs/ss ("sys-libs/ss" is blocking
sys-libs/e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.3-r1)

I unmerged them, and then emerge -uDN system had been working fine until
sys-libs/e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.3-r1 compilation failed with
../../lib/libuuid.so: undefined reference to `___tls_get_addr'



Alexey,

I think `emerge --nodeps bash` was the cause of your problem. You need to resolve each and every dependency - often sequentially or incrementally - before you go on to the next package. --nodpes is just asking your system to break.

I gave you advice in my previous message - you should have emerged earlier versions of packages in order, for the reason to avoid blockers. The Gentoo devs had a GOOD REASON when they declared bash-3.2_p39 as blocking the current portage. If you had tried to emerge the earlier bash you would probably have found it blocked by an earlier portage &/or mktemp &/or com_err &/or util-linux &/or sys-libs/ ss. If you had resolved each dependency in turn you would have eventually been able to upgrade to the latest versions.

I know this, because last month I did this myself. A system last upgraded in August or September 2007 now has bash-3.2_p39 and portage-2.1.6.4 installed on it.

If you don't have the patience for this, then do as Alan says & reinstall the whole system.

If you don't understand what I wrote, then just ask.

If you want to upgrade this system then you're going to have to do a lot of work yourself. You WILL need to get older intermediate package versions from the CVS attic <http://sources.gentoo.org/> and you will need to Google & read the list archive to see the correct procedure for resolving the mktemp, com_err, util-linux & sys-libs/ss problems. But that really is pretty straightforward - it is clearly documented on the list "emerge version X of this, then version Y of that".

Stroller.
