Bug 105080 – "emerge erlang" terminates with "access denied" message

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Ryan Kaulakis 2005-09-06 16:05:07 UTC]

While trying to emerge erlang version 10.2.5 the ebuild halts during an erlc
step then repeatedly printing:
"ACCESS DENIED: access_wr: /
ACCESS DENIED: access_wr: /var"

Eventually an "ACCESS VIOLATION SUMMARY" is written to
"/var/log/sandbox/sandbox-dev-lang_-_erlang-10.2.5-19272.log". This file
contains several additional repitions of the error message mentioned above.

This is an enigmatic error message (from my POV at least), so I'm not sure if
this is an ebuild problem, or something unique to my system.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. # emerge erlang
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
emerge terminates, printing "ACCESS DENIED: access_wr: /
ACCESS DENIED: access_wr: /var" repeatedly (which is also recorded in the log:
"/var/log/sandbox/sandbox-dev-lang_-_erlang-10.2.5-19272.log")

Expected Results:  
I'm guessing that access violations shouldn't occur during an ebuild.
