!!! Cannot write to '/home'. !!! Please check permissions and directories for broken symlinks. !!! You may start the merge process again by using ebuild: !!! ebuild /usr/portage/net-www/htdig/htdig-3.1.6-r4.ebuild merge !!! And finish by running this: env-update This is with the htdig-3.1.6-r4 ebuild. For systems where /home is mounted over nfs from a server which squashes root, this just can't work. I'm not sure whether you count this as a bug with the build or something that's my own fault for using nfs mounts. There is a similar problem with baselayout, reported in #9849.
sorry but i dont consider this a bug. the decision was made long ago that we'd use /home/httpd as apache's data directory. there is no specified standard place for this in FHS. further, every distro seems to do their own thing anyway. closing.
