I unemerged Portage!


Recommended Posts

Hah. DOH!

One of my package emerges was calling for a newer version of Portage.. But I already had that version installed. So I figured.. why not uninstall it and reinstall it? just ran a emerge -C sys-apps/portage and then tried to emerge sys-apps/portage.. emerge not found, I just uninstalled it :laugh: Stupid me.

How can I get portage back?

I don't know if it would work but you could try booting from the LiveCD, mount your partitions, chroot to your system, setup so you have internet access, and try to do a "emerge portage" from that point.

HA, reminds me of when I did the stupidiest thing ever. I did the exact same, except with glibc rpms.

Now try to run anything without shared C libraries...

I wish I had installed a static shell such as /bin/busybox...

I also did the exact same thing. I had to reinstall linux cause of it.
