I just built a new system starting Saturday (7/26) and I'm still building in a chrooted shell. Using portage 2.0.48-r7 I've seen occasional but infrequent errors as above, and then portage finishes with an error message about running "emerge --verbose". I tried that a few times as i was building things, but never saw the error when I ran with --verbose. Sorry I let the last one get away without capturing a paste... Edit: see output below from end of emerge. I'm just about to reboot into the system (using a wolk-4.3s kernel), so I'll keep my eyes open for any more errors like this. However, I built several installs like this in the past with no apparent problems (with older versions of portage). Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1.It just happens with a normal "emerge spam" (just not regularly). 2. 3.

It's related to FEATURES=userpriv, the portage user has no access to /dev/fd/1 (the target of /dev/stdout).
Created attachment 15297 [details, diff] patch for ebuild.sh (from 49_pre16) This patch fixes the permission problem for me.
Fixed in cvs.
