The system upgrade is now complete. Thanks for the help, @palica.

I think the Upgrade Instructions may be missing steps regarding the python upgrade. It says to run these commands: # emerge -u1 =dev-lang/python-3.6* # emerge -C =dev-lang/python-3.4* Both systems that I've upgraded to 1.2, I got this message when trying to remove python-3.4: [root@wolfie 73% etc]# emerge -C =dev-lang/python-3.4* * This action can remove important packages! In order to be safer, use * `emerge -pv --depclean <atom>` to check for reverse dependencies before * removing packages. >>> These are the packages that would be unmerged: * Not unmerging package dev-lang/python-3.4.6-r1 since there is no valid * reason for Portage to unmerge currently used Python interpreter. >>> No packages selected for removal by unmerge I don't recall exactly what I did the last time (it was some time ago), but today I tried first to use 'eselect python set'. This removed the '(fallback)' status for python3.6, but did not get rid of the above message. I ended up using 'eselect python edit' and entering a '-' before python3.4. This has happened to me twice now, which suggests it's not something weird that I did.

The 'emerge --emptytree' would do this anyway, dummy! :) Never mind, folks.

I'm curious. The Upgrade Instructions have one upgrade gcc, then set the subarch. It seems you'd want subarch turned on beforehand so the gcc binary gets the benifits of the optimizations. Or, if that doesn't work because the older gcc doesn't work with the subarch profiles, then it seems best to 'emerge -u1 gcc', then 'epro subarch', then 'emerge -1 gcc'. Is this a waste of effort?

Are you saying that there are steps I should follow to avoid 1.3? I did not put 1.3 in ego.conf, if that's what you mean.

I was following those steps. I didn't touch ego.conf. I tried to upgrade ego, and got the errors about PYTHON_TARGETS above.

Sync was successful. I did the above. Still had issues getting ego to merge. I had to add PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET and PYTHON_TARGETS to make.conf for some reason. Had to use this to turn ignore a file collision with a man page for boot.conf: [root@wolfie 61% ego]# FEATURES="-collision-detect -protect-owned" ebuild ego-2.5.0.4.ebuild merge Got this QA warning: * QA Notice: Symbolic link /usr/sbin/boot-update points to /usr/sbin/ego which does not exist. [root@wolfie 61% portage]# whereis ego ego: /usr/bin/ego /etc/ego.conf /usr/share/ego /usr/share/man/man1/ego.1.bz2 But at this point, epro worked well enough to get my profiles back where they were, and ego worked well enough to sync. Any tips on why I needed to set the PYTHON variables in make.conf and why 'eselect python' isn't working? [root@wolfie 61% ego]# eselect python list Available Python interpreters, in order of preference: [1] python3.4 [2] python2.7 [root@wolfie 61% ego]# eselect python set 1 [root@wolfie 61% ego]# eselect python list Available Python interpreters, in order of preference: [1] python3.4 [2] python2.7

Good catch! It seems to be doing a lot more now.

Also, you might have missed it, but one of the logs in the initial post shows that I tried to clone ego from git and run 'ego sync' with that.

Not so easy, when 1) I can't sync to pull an updated ego ebuild, and 2)... [root@wolfie 61% make.profile]# emerge -tuND --pretend ego !!! Unable to parse profile: '/etc/portage/make.profile' !!! ParseError: Empty parent file: '/etc/portage/make.profile/parent' !!! /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.) !!! Your current profile is invalid. If you have just changed your profile !!! configuration, you should revert back to the previous configuration. !!! Allowed actions are limited to --help, --info, --search, --sync, and !!! --version.

I was trying, but 'ego sync' (esentially the first in there as the first steps would have been done at the end of the last upgrade) went awry.

I have a system that hasn't been updated in a few months. I know it was updated to kits, but not yet to 1.2, which is what I was fixing to do today. Started with 'ego sync', which had an error. At that point profiles seemed to be trashed (0-length parent file), and various [ignorant] efforts to recover did not work out. Where do I need to start?

When I checked my container last week, I found that it was running a patched kernel.

Got it. I guess I was expecting some command to do this. It seems strange as I've been using gentoo/funtoo for so long, but I must have never downloaded an ebuild that needed a patch before. Thanks.
