PREFIX the next generation...

So following Grobian's lead I decided I'll not worry about toolsbox
right now and just try to get portage working (I'm on linux so I
already have the requirements for portage...)

I wrote the notoolsbox.sh (pasted in below) script to document my steps.

After the standard user/group tweaks, I'm back to where I was
previously. "emerge -av system" returns the following:

niger:mharrison[1216] /data1/portage/dec19/prefix/usr/bin/emerge -av
system --debug
Invalid package name in package.provided: virtual/libc
Invalid package name in package.provided: virtual/linux-sources
Invalid package name in package.provided: virtual/os-headers

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Depstring: >=app-shells/bash-3.0-r9
Candidates: ['>=app-shells/bash-3.0-r9']

aux_get(): (0) Error in app-shells/bash-3.0-r13 ebuild. (-1)

File "/data1/portage/dec19/prefix/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py",
line 5008, in aux_get
raise KeyError
KeyError

I stepped through (or began to) the monsterous function doebuild and
saw that it was trying to run ebuild.sh depend path/to/bash/ebuild and
return -1.

Running that from the command line returns doesn't work (I'm assumming
it is an environment issue):

niger:mharrison[1217] /data1/portage/dec19/prefix/usr/bin/ebuild
depend /data1/portage/dec19/prefix/usr/local/portage/app-shells/bash/bash-3.0-r13.ebuild

I'm now lurking in #gentoo-osx and #gentoo-portage if anyone is
interested in chatting....

The -1 was caused by a missing ${PREFIX}/bin/bash (remnant of not
using toolsbox). A symlink fixes that issue.

Re: PREFIX the next generation... [In reply to]

Just to give you an update. I ended more or less in the same state as
you. Though I think I know why it's so stubborn. Portage seems to
expect all binaries and stuff in the prefixed location. I added
(symlinked) /bin/bash in my prefix, and was after that able to run
ebuild xxxx digest for instance.

So my thoughts were actually to give haubi's box a fling again, because
it might install the minimal set of tools necessary. Sigh. I need
longer weekends and much more hair to pull ;)

Not going into IRC now, because I try to stay away from it at least
during the week, to be able to actually do something...

Hmmm, I think I did that too...

Hmmm, this message sounds very familiar to me. I don't remember the
package.provided stuff though... I just 'ported' baselayout because I
needed it.

Anywayz, congrats! You seem to have the beast running!

Re: PREFIX the next generation... [In reply to]

I'm basically at the same state with Haubi's toolsbox and your method.
After chatting with Kito I'm also thinking about sticking with
toolsbox. (Since it is pretty generic and should run on most any
unix). Kito also helped explain the next steps with seem to be coming
up with virtuals/package.provided for (taken from emerge info):
dev-lang/python: [Not Present]
sys-apps/sandbox: [Not Present]
sys-devel/autoconf: [Not Present]
sys-devel/automake: [Not Present]
sys-devel/binutils: [Not Present]
sys-devel/libtool: [Not Present]
sys-devel/odcctools: [Not Present]
virtual/os-headers: [Not Present]

Haubi- How did you deal with this in your 2.1 tree?
Also why is emerge -av system trying to installing portage2.1?

Because portage is part of the base system packages. You manually
installed portage(i.e. not via an ebuild) so portage itself doesn't
know it is installed(hope that made sense). In other words, you have
an empty world file, and portage is trying to satisfy all the deps
specified in your base profile.

Take a look at PORTDIR/profiles/base/packages

On a side note, I put a placeholder on a wiki page[1] so we can start
trying to consolidate all of our various notes/efforts. Alas, I
didn't have time today to put anything useful...

Re: PREFIX the next generation... [In reply to]

More progress...
So after tweaking the portage overlay tree and adding some symlinks,
portage will calculate the deps for emerge -av system. But when I try
to emerge the 53 packages it fails because it is trying to merge to
"/".... ie:
Do you want me to merge these packages? [Yes/No] y
>>> emerge (1 of 53) sys-devel/patch-2.5.9-r1 to /
!!! File system problem. (Bad Symlink?)
!!! Fetching may fail: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ''
!!! No write access to /
!!! File patch-2.5.9.tar.gz isn't fetched but unable to get it.

----------------
Note the "/" in the first line. Still my environment is missing
something. But I'm getting closer....

Wrah! I've seen this too, and fixed it. I don't know for sure any
more, but maybe I just solved it by commenting out the FETCH_COMMAND
lines in ${PREFIX}/etc/make.conf, because they point to /usr/bin/wget.
I assume that the default points to ${PREFIX}/usr/bin/wget
This may not be the problem...

Re: PREFIX the next generation... [In reply to]

No, that doesn't work. I've looked through the code of portage and
the portage.root value is hardcoded in some places as "/"....

I just got this:
% ebuild gpm-1.20.1-r5.ebuild digest
!!! Problem with sandbox binary. Disabling...

!!! File system problem. (Bad Symlink?)
!!! Fetching may fail: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ''

!!! File gpm-1.20.1.tar.bz2 isn't fetched but unable to get it.

I solved it by uncommenting the DISTDIR=${PORTDIR}/distfiles line in my
etc/make.conf. The default is apparently set before the ${PORTDIR}
variable is set:

ROOT=/ is correct. If it was set to anything else you would get
packages merged to /${ROOT}/${PREFIX}

The caveat in this is we cheat in the prefix by hacking etc/portage/
bashrc to automatically append $PREFIX to maintain compatibility with
the countless ebuilds that do things in src_install() like `if [[ -e $
{ROOT}/usr/bin ]]; then foo bar;fi;

I think your errors are from a malformed make.conf. Its not picking
up things like DISTDIR.

Hmm, let me re-phrase that. I'm configuring away. Been "configuring"
for the past 20 minutes or so. (Actually I don't think it's
configuring, I think it is stuck. Here's a screen dump, nothing is
going)

Hmm, don't know what you did, but i've installed these things using
portage. IIRC portage reads those versions from its database, not
querying the package's executables found in PATH or the like.

My 'emerge --info' output is attached.

After adding many packages to either package.provided, or just porting
them to EAPI="prefix". (well in fact just adding them and doing a quick
scan for possible problems), I finally got portage giving me a whole
bunch of apps it wanted to emerge on emerge -av system.

Unfortunately, my luck was spoiled right after removing the -a:

Do I understand Python's ****** stacktrace correctly if I think this is

I have my suspicions that configure is in a loop generating
configure.lineno. It seems the configure.lineno is always super recent
if I kill it, and the growing memory behaviour would match with
configure for some daft reason going recursive on itself... :(

No clue why or how to fix it for now...

That 'UnboundLocalError' is a bug in prefix and trunk (fixed also).

That said, I'm wondering what perms/privs you're running as. The
port_logdir perm resets shouldn't be failing unless you're running as
non root and trying to have it modify a dir it lacks privs to...

Re: PREFIX the next generation... [In reply to]

I saw your checkin, thanks.

It was easily solveable though. I'm not running as root, but my
PORT_LOGDIR pointed to $(PREFIX)/var/log/portage (absolute path),
however, I didn't have the directory $(PREFIX)/var/log. It died
actually because it expected the log dir to be there (and probably the
var dir too). When I created the dir, it worked like a charm.

Maybe this is easily catchable too to make the error message somewhat
less confusing. However, I assume this normally doesn't/shouldn't
happen, so it's only minor.
