After I emerged Firebird Version 1.5.1 I was told to run "ebuild $PATH_TO_EBUILD.ebuild config". I received the following hint by chown: chown: `root.root' syntax is obsolete; use `:' since this will be removed in the future I had a look at the Ebuild and noticed that every chown was done with ":" except this one: ---------- # we need to enable local access to the server if [ ! -f /etc/hosts.equiv ] then touch /etc/hosts.equiv chown root.root /etc/hosts.equiv chmod u=rw,go=r /etc/hosts.equiv fi if [ -z "`grep 'localhost$' /etc/hosts.equiv`" ] then echo "localhost" >> /etc/hosts.equiv einfo "Added localhost to /etc/hosts.equiv" fi ---------- Although it isn't critical, maybe you want to change it in future releases?

Fixed in CVS, thanks.
