I was interested in trying out LXDE as mentioned in the November newsletter. Issued emerge command: emerge lxde-meta Emerge halted on lxpanel with an access denied message. I'm guessing here since I'm not a programmer. But, it looks like the build is trying to remove files which don't exist. Since this is the first time I've ever built LXDE, this is a non-existent directory. .oOo. make[5]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/lxde-base/lxpanel-0.3.8.1/work/lxpanel-0.3.8.1/src/plugins/netstatus' rm -f "/usr/lib64/lxpanel/plugins\*.la" *.a ACCESS DENIED unlinkat: /usr/lib64/lxpanel/plugins\*.la rm: cannot remove `/usr/lib64/lxpanel/plugins\\*.la': Permission denied make[5]: *** [install-exec-hook] Error 1 make[5]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/lxde-base/lxpanel-0.3.8.1/work/lxpanel-0.3.8.1/src/plugins/netstatus' make[4]: *** [install-exec-am] Error 2 make[4]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/lxde-base/lxpanel-0.3.8.1/work/lxpanel-0.3.8.1/src/plugins/netstatus' make[3]: *** [install-am] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/lxde-base/lxpanel-0.3.8.1/work/lxpanel-0.3.8.1/src/plugins/netstatus' make[2]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/lxde-base/lxpanel-0.3.8.1/work/lxpanel-0.3.8.1/src/plugins' make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/lxde-base/lxpanel-0.3.8.1/work/lxpanel-0.3.8.1/src' make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 * * ERROR: lxde-base/lxpanel-0.3.8.1 failed. * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 49: Called src_install * environment, line 188: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * emake DESTDIR="${D}" install || die "emake install failed"; * The die message: * emake install failed * * If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. * A complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/lxde-base/lxpanel-0.3.8.1/temp/build.log'. * The ebuild environment file is located at '/var/tmp/portage/lxde-base/lxpanel-0.3.8.1/temp/environment'. * --------------------------- ACCESS VIOLATION SUMMARY --------------------------- LOG FILE "/var/log/sandbox/sandbox-12823.log" VERSION 1.0 FORMAT: F - Function called FORMAT: S - Access Status FORMAT: P - Path as passed to function FORMAT: A - Absolute Path (not canonical) FORMAT: R - Canonical Path FORMAT: C - Command Line F: unlinkat S: deny P: /usr/lib64/lxpanel/plugins\*.la A: /usr/lib64/lxpanel/plugins\*.la R: /usr/lib64/lxpanel/plugins\*.la C: rm -f /usr/lib64/lxpanel/plugins\*.la *.a -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- .oOo.

This is not good. Looks like the build system is trying to access files on the root fs. Assigning to maintainers.
Could you attach the complete build log please?
Scratch that. I figured it out. Fix committed to CVS. Thanks for reporting!
