Oops, I didn't know or expect "eselect" to be a Bash script. Otherwise
I would have done this already :-)
I've appended the trace output at the end. This sure revealed the pro-
blem: skimming upward from the call to "die" in line ">196:" one can see
the script trying in line ">>>129:" to extract lines matching "^x86_64"
from "/var/db/repos/gentoo/profiles/profiles.desc". However, there are
none. Skimming farther upward reveals the string "x86_64" being derived
in line ">>>>33:" from environment variable "ARCH" which is defined in
my shell initialization scripts:
export ARCH=$({ arch || uname -m || echo unknown ; } 2> /dev/null)
But the only architectures supported by my "profiles.desc" file are:
$ gawk '! /^#|^$/ { print $1 }
' /var/db/repos/gentoo/profiles/profiles.desc | sort -u
alpha
amd64
amd64-linux
arm
arm-linux
arm64
arm64-linux
arm64-macos
hppa
ia64
loong
m68k
mips
ppc

$
So what is causing this? Why is environment variable "ARCH" expected to
have a value different from "$(arch)"? In fact, running
$ ARCH= eselect profile list
[1] default/linux/amd64/17.1 (stable)
...
[35] default/linux/amd64/17.0/musl/hardened/selinux (exp)
$
succeeds, which is slightly puzzling, at least for me :-/
But if that's the way it has to be, I can live with it by just setting my
"eselect" alias to "eselect='ARCH= eselect --color=no'", which works.
In any case thanks for your time and effort :-)
Sincerely,
Rainer
