>From the initial post it seems that the binary that has a problem is bash/sh. They are both linked against tinfo/ncurses. And since portage runs using bash... you see where I'm going with this. You could maybe use a different shell (although I can't imagine a shell not using the terminal capabilities ;) ), but still wouldn't be able to use portage. > Maybe "emerge --quiet=y -a @smart-live-rebuild" Smart live rebuild only deals with live ebuilds. How would it help in this case?
