equo upgrade showing error
 

hi.
for the first time i've installed sabayon in my machine. following the wiki link

i tried upgrading my system. however it ends up in an error. it reads the following

i tried upgrading it using rigo but there's also no luck. it's all the same.
Please help.

layman -a sabayon sabayon-distro
layman --sync ALL
emerge --sync
emerge entropy equo
equo upgrade

Johnny,
please can you explain why you would run those commands and what they do?

Fred.

You need to use portage, the gentoo package manager to update equo.
layman -a :adds the sabayon and sabayon-distro repository ports to portage.
layman --sync ALL :makes sure the different ports play together,
emerge --sync :updates the portage package list.

## You can do two and three of the above with one command: emerge --sync && layman --sync sabayon && layman --sync sabayon-distro

emerge entropy equo :installs equo and entropy using the gentoo package manager.

Now you can do your updates: equo upgrade --ask : --ask shows you what will be upgraded, any dependencies, etc. Just type 'y' a couple of times and you're off and running.

Hello,
I tried these steps and I'm still getting the same error:
╠ ## Unpacking: dev-libs:libbytesize-1.4.11af32d0f43b617a8afd3ad7283f67a161ca9f20~0.tbz2
╠ ## Package phase: setup
☢ ## Source Package Manager is too old, please update it: UnsupportedAPIException()
☢ ## An error occurred. Action aborted.

I'm having the same exact issue.

I'm emerging git right now...

Now trying this:

That command completed successfully. It did note that Portage is out of date, so I'm updating that using this command:

Successful. However, it's still fussing about git with the Sabayon overlay... switching back over to Entropy...

Installed along with all the other system updates. Fixed. :)

Hi, try follow setp. In the console.

su
equo install --nodeps sys-apps/entropy rigo equo

If the problem is exist, and the equo shows some packages need to updrade, please use follow command to upgrade them first.

equo install sys-apps/portage --norecursive --ask
equo install sys-apps/entropy --norecursive --ask
equo install sys-devel/binutils --norecursive --ask
...

This one did it for me. Most of the time when updating an old sabayon system, this is it.
Somehow 19.03 fails to install so I install using 18.05 but if you try to upgrade such an old system, after a while, errors with rigo/equo start coming.
