Description Andreas Haak 2006-04-08 08:57:49 UTC 
Hi,

emerge -e system fails when doing a stage 1 or 2 install using ~x86. The problem is quite simple:

The openssh ebuild tries to add a special group sshd. The problem is at this time shadow isn't installed yet so the groupadd call fails. Shadow is scheduled to be installed after openssh.

The easiest way to fix that issue is to add shadow as a dependency for all packages that automatically add groups or users so shadow get installed before openssh. Until that little quirk is fixed using "emerge --oneshot shadow && emerge --resume" will work fine.

emerge --info:

Don't restrict bugs without a reason. This type of issues is exactly why we don't recommend using stage1.
