Hi,

I've been getting this build message for every package that I attempt to emerge.
I'm starting to become  concerned  that  my  Portage  installation  is  corrupt,
although  I  want  to  make  sure  before  I  try  and  embark  on  the  lengthy
Portage-rescue process.

For example, if I try to emerge app-editors/emacs (a package I  have  never  had
installed), I get the following error, both from emerge and a raw Python  crash:

Calculating dependencies  ... done!

Does  anyone  know  if  anything  can  be  done,  short  of  re-installing   and
re-configuring Portage ?
