Created attachment 16448 [details] xmltv sandbox file I can confirm the bug.
Created attachment 16663 [details] Log Output From emerge xmltv I get sandbox violations with xmltv 0.5.16 as well. This probably will not help, but, I can configure/build xmltv manually as a normal user then su to root and install.
I get this problem emerg:in version 0.5.17 also
Gah! I found the problem. It is line 35 of DateManip.pm. As part of taint check it tries to unlink this file. I'll update further as I get closer to finding a fix.
I added a patch to DateManip, and bumped version. This should fix the sandbox problems.
