That implies that the error coming from the ebuild is a bug? I mean, it should recognise the latest location of make.globals. > Try these steps meanwhile if you haven't already: > > kill all defunct and old emerge processes, and try emerge again. > With no emerge processes running, delete all _lockfiles > in /var/tmp/portage and try again.

There's no zombies of any sort too. I've also remerged portage-2.1.1 and tried again, but it fails with the same error. I have filed a bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=147175 Thank you for your help - if there's anything else I could try please let me know. -- Regards, Mick
