erlang seems to run its own shell (eshell) during the build process, but then fails when trying to allocate a terminal outside the sandbox. Is there a workaround for that ? I saw similar sandbox problems with apache long directory path and others, but this one is more unique I think. I'm running 2.4.20-gentoo-r5, portage-2.0.48-r7 and coreutils-5.0. I get the following output: ...

`emerge info` please and tell me how you are connecting to the box ... are you running a terminal in X ? ssh session ? console ?
I did emerge erlang from within a gnome terminal (XFree). According to your hint, I tried compile on a console, and IT WORKED ! Thx ! Maybe just add a comment to the ebuild ?
nah, i added a `addpredict` so that the ebuild will lie to erlang and tell it that it wrote to the terminal when it really didnt ;) thanks for the report
