Hi,

as often before, I've cloned a working system (GenToo) onto another
machine. There, from a livecd and chroot to the cloned root partition

python -v
import site

fails with the following error

     st = os.stat(path)
TypeError: stat() argument 1 must be encoded string without NULL bytes,
not str
I'm puzzled and I'd appreciate any hints to the reason for this failure.

Many thanks,
Helmut.
You gave the answer yourself.
Chrooting does not automatically mean your SO cache is where it should be for the target system. Perhaps your livecd is newer/older than the target system or simply the python in live environment
is not (most likely) compiled as the one in the target system.

That is _one_ reason I stoped using gentoo and switched to debian/ubuntu.
