Cannot get python-updater to finish!!!!

[Jmanfoo]

I'm running 3.4e x86, and I just did a wipe and reload and I'm trying to run python-updater and when it gets to dev-python/numeric-24.2-r6 it fails out with the compilation error "AttributeError: Extension instance has no attribute 'pyrex_c_in_temp'". I have tried to merge and older version, but it still fails out because python-updater insists on this version. Any ideas?

The python-updater doesn't seem to get dependencies right. Some things need to be re-merged first, but it doesn't pick up on that.

What I did was 'python-updater -p' for pretend. This gave me a list of packages that it needs to update.

You can then either manually re-emerge all these packages, or try to figure out the one that is giving you the dependency issue, manually re-emerge that one, and re-run python-updater.

Just mask pyrex-0.9.6 (or sync, as according to the bug it's been masked in portage today) and downgrade to version 0.9.5.1a

Ok I got most of the dependency issues resolved, but now it's trying to emerge dev-java/antlr-2.7.7 and keeps giving me this error:

Code: Select all

gcc-config error: /usr/bin/fastjar wrapper: Unable to determine executable.
CTARGET=i586-pc-linux-gnu
exec=fastjar

I've remerged jdk, java-config, and java-config-wrapper, all to no avail. I did need to change the gcc-config profile to reflect the updated gcc, and that seems to work fine since I'm able to compile other packages.

Can I just mask and skip this one for now?

I found this discussion in the Gentoo discussion forums:

Myself, I'd just rename the file discussed in that topic instead of deleting it.
