Hi Dhruba,
Thanks for the response....umm the output of "emerge info" was as follows Portage 2.0.48-r7 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.2, glibc-2.3.1-r4)
There was an update to portage today to Portage 2.0.49_pre18. Try that update and do an emerge sync after the update.
And just to remind you ...the problem I was having a whole bunch of errors starting with teh word aux_get() referring to some ebuils
Usually, this either means that on the developer end there have been some accidental typing errors or that the rsync process has corrupted the content of the ebuilds. Either way, your choices are either to wait for someone to find these errors and fix them or to file bugs and notify them that these errors exist. The second is usually faster.
HTH.
