zope uses 'groupadd' during install, therefore it should require 'shadow' package (where 'groupadd' is included) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. unpack stage2 tarball 2. chroot 3. emerge zope Actual Results: The install phase fails, because of 'groupadd' command missing
sorry, the group and user is added during the merge phase...
No, sys-apps/shadow is in /usr/portage/profiles/base, no need for zope to depend on it. You are not supposed to emerge zope on an unpacked stage 2, you need to run 'emerge --emptytree system' first. http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=6#doc_chap4
Oops, I thought I _do_ miss something... Sorry for bothering.
