on 2 Athlon XP machines (one is a mobile, if that helps any): the gst-plugins don't emerge, and therefore no new gnome. it says access violation and the log file contains the following files: open_wr: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/.testing.writeability unlink: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/.testing.writeability mkdir: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/system/gstreamer mkdir: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/schemas/system/gstreamer mkdir: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/system/gstreamer mkdir: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/schemas/system/gstreamer mkdir: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/system/gstreamer mkdir: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/schemas/system/gstreamer mkdir: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/system/gstreamer mkdir: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/schemas/system/gstreamer mkdir: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/system/gstreamer mkdir: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/schemas/system/gstreamer further up it says: ACCESS DENIED open_wr: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/.testing.writeability ACCESS DENIED unlink: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/.testing.writeability ACCESS DENIED open_wr: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/schemas/system/gstreamer I tried a chmod 777 -R /etc/gconf Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge gst-plugins 2. 3.

Me too... :(
i can confirm this, but i'm guessing it's a portage update that might have something to do with it, because it used to work perfectly for me. something about version 2.0.49-r10 which i just updated to today and the reporter is using.
It seems to work with portage 2.0.49-r3, but not with -r10 or -r12
portage team, what changes could have caused this ?
Foser, I don't know why this differs between versions of portage, but it can be fixed by the following change in the ebuild: src_install() { GCONF_DISABLE_MAKEFILE_SCHEMA_INSTALL=1 einstall || die dodoc AUTHORS COPYING INSTALL README RELEASE TODO } In other words, adding, GCONF_DISABLE_MAKEFILE_SCHEMA_INSTALL=1 does the trick
hmm yeah, i added a fix based on agriffis suggestion to gst-plugins-0.6.3 .. please rsync and try again when it has propagated.
Same problem here, but also with portage 2.0.49-r3 and not fixed by gst-plugins-0.6.3 (I unmerged the former version): /tmp/sandbox-gst-plugins-0.6.3-11645.log: open_wr: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/.testing.writeability unlink: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/.testing.writeability open_wr: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/schemas/system/gstreamer/default/%gconf.xml.tmp open_wr: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/system/gstreamer/default/%gconf.xml.tmp thunder root # emerge --update -p gnome These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!

hmm you need the 'fixed' gst-plugins-0.6.3 .. needs to propagete first. But the fixed version wasn't so fixed after all, i'll give a shout when it's really fixed.
uuups - sorry foser, I didn't realize the timezone (22:44 local time here). I'll try again when you fixed the fix.
*shout* it should most likely be propagate by now, header version (in 3rd line) of the correct ebuild is 'v 1.9'. Please test.
*** Bug 30933 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Tested. Emerge works now, thanks a lot. Rupert
The configure/build is writing to /etc/, that's not legal. Nothing changed from -r3 to -r10 in snadbox. This wasn't a sandbox issue, it was an ebuild-allowing-bad-things issue. Close please, or remove dev-poratge from cc.
i'm getting mixed reactions here, does the current version in portage work for everybody ? If not, what is the output ?
works fine here. great work!
gst-plugins-0.6.4 and portage-2.0.49-r15 built fine with no problems. closing.
