Thank you for your help! The step that fixed my problems was to remove /etc/portage/make.profile and have ego recreate it with "ego sync --config-only" and reset everything with epro

I did not update my system for a long time and also missed the announcement for the meta-repo thing. I decided to update, read a lot of links from the forums etc. and ended up screwing up my build system. (for example this post ) # epro === Enabled Profiles: === arch: base build: (not set) subarch: (not set) flavor: (not set) mix-ins: (not set) === Python kit: === branch: 3.4-prime # emerge -vpuD --newuse @world !!! /etc/portage/make.profile is not a symlink and will probably prevent most merges. !!! It should point into a profile within /var/git/meta-repo/kits/core-kit/profiles/ !!! (You can safely ignore this message when syncing. It's harmless.) # ls -al /etc/portage/make.profile lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 62 Aug 7 10:48 /etc/portage/make.profile -> /var/git/meta-repo/kits/core-kit/profiles/funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu "epro flavor server" prints out a huge stacktrace. "emerge --info" does the same: File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/portage/package/ebuild/_config/LocationsManager.py", line 249, in _addProfile self._addProfile(parentPath, repositories, known_repos) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/portage/package/ebuild/_config/LocationsManager.py", line 249, in _addProfile self._addProfile(parentPath, repositories, known_repos) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/portage/package/ebuild/_config/LocationsManager.py", line 249, in _addProfile self._addProfile(parentPath, repositories, known_repos) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/portage/package/ebuild/_config/LocationsManager.py", line 227, in _addProfile parents = grabfile(parentsFile) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/portage/util/__init__.py", line 131, in grabfile mylines = grablines(myfilename, recursive, remember_source_file=True) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/portage/util/__init__.py", line 574, in grablines mode='r', encoding=_encodings['content'], errors='replace') as myfile: File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/codecs.py", line 303, in __init__ IncrementalDecoder.__init__(self, errors) RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded while calling a Python object So basicaly i'm stuck here and don't know how to continue. "ego sync" is working fine, so the meta-repo structure seems to be OK. Can anyone please help me to get back a working system? Thank you, Thomas
