Problem with sabayon 7 KDE update

[ace-cro]

Hi all.

I've manged to install sabayon 7 on my laptop and I've managed to update it w/o any problems. Later I've downloaded kopete with USE for skype from portage. I know I am not supposed to mix the repositories, but I never had this problem before. Anyway now I get the following error no mater witch of the reps I use:

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):

If you can shed some light on this problem I would be grateful (python-upater not working either).

Hi

did you merged (ran "emerge portage") a portage updated (but is downgraded version) from portage ?

[ace-cro]

Well yes the first time. I've had to reinstall the system, witch would eliminate the problem. But every time I try to install anything from protage I would get the same results.

uuhm ... try to install portage using entropy :

Code: Select all

# equo install portage

maybe this will be fix

[ace-cro]

Nope

Nothing has changed. Also I noticed I can't download torrents. I tried to use BitTorrent but i got this error:

Code: Select all

[core.MultiTorrent.0547be32e24b4a14d41187e1d82ae2709dc4dbb7] Torrent got exception: <class 'socket.herror'>
