I seem to have gotten past the unlink issue. I modified the first line of emerge from: #!/usr/bin/python -O to: #!/usr/local/bin/python -O This seems to be solution even though I had symlinks from /usr/bin/python -> /usr/local/bin/python. The emerge -uD is working nicely now. It is on packet 5 of 8. Where, before, it would fail on the first package. -Tom -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
