  • [gentoo-user] bash: genfun_has_readline

    From Peter Humphrey@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jun 30 18:00:01 2024
    Hello list,

    I'm seeing this every time I chroot into my rescue system:

    # chroot /mnt/rescue /bin/bash
    bash: genfun_has_readline: command not found

    Google results suggest that the genfun is defined in the new version of bashrc, but it isn't on any of my systems, even one ~amd64.

    The same thing happened when I started a new build from stage-3, when I chrooted into the nascent system.

    Clues, anyone?

    Thanks, but it doesn't help. What it says doesn't apply here.

    The same thing happened when I started a new build from stage-3, when I chrooted into the nascent system.

    I was mistaken about that latter; it's more complicated than I thought.

    The problem seems to have been that I was running the new installation by hosting a chroot on an already running Gentoo system. I still have no idea what's wrong with doing that, but I get all sorts of dramatic failures in emerging.

    I've now run a successful installation from a SysRescCD, so I'm left with yet more head-scratching.

    Sorry about the noise.
