Aniruddha what is your emerge info ?

can anyone of you attach a config.log ?

*** Bug 35331 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

but spider are you using 'user*' features ? try without them.

whoo, bugzilla lives.


without userpriv and usersandbox it works. permissions thing?

For some reason the configure script is not writable after the configure:
-r-xr-xr-x    1 portage  portage    347684 Nov 26 21:47 configure

The missing script seems to try to touch it and fails. Suspending the fam ebuild while the configure is running and setting running chmod u+w configure allows the build to continue.

Maybe this only fails for people that use sandbox+userprib+usersandbox ?

yes i assumed that was the problem from the initial error.

ok added a chmod fix for the user* users. please rsync in a little while and test.

thnx for the report & help

Works now. Thanks for your help and effort. :-)
