[gentoo-user] Circular blocks after last night's sync?
During an update attempt this afternoon, these little surprises were waiting for me. I took a look at the archives, and naturally, google, but all I found were lots of the same error, and no information on it/what's broken. Anyone else having this particular problem? The block errors are below.

Steven Susbauer a gentiment tapote: Sadly, I did not read this until these were all unmerged, and wget is truly broken. Happily, I do run with buildpkg on all the time, but an this the first time I've really needed them. Getting back to a running system was pretty easy. However, this does not really solve the problem. What's a safe way to do this emerge? ++ kevin I mention the steps in the bug report: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=234907#c70 You may also choose to mask the affected packages, or remove kerberos support entirely. Hi, I encountered the same problem. I unmerged sys-libs/ss, sys-libs/com_err and sys-fs/e2fsprogs. Of course everything was broken and wget did not work anymore... So i downloaded sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.40.9.tar.gz with Firefox browser to /usr/portage/distfile and put sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.40.9 in package.mask. Then I could emerge sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.40.9. Now sys-libs/ss-1.40.9, sys-libs/com_err-1.40.9 and sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.40.9 are installed and everything works fine. Cheers, Jacques

If you go the route of uninstalling things first, make sure that you have the sources prepared as wget might not work for some use flag combinations when you remove e2fsprogs, ss, com_err in advance.
