The ebuilds for net-analyzer/cacti-cactid do not install the configfile cactid.conf if there's an other http server (i.e. lighttpd) used. The problem affects all ebuild available. During install you get: "install: invalid group `apache'" The reason is: the ebuilds use the line "insinto etc/ ; insopts -m0640 -o root -g apache ; doins ${S}/cactid.conf" to install the configfile -- but if you don't have apache installed there is systemgroup "apache". Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge cacti-cactid on a system without the "apache" systemgroup Actual Results: net-analyzer/cacti-cactid does not install its configfile Expected Results: net-analyzer/cacti-cactid installs its configfile Portage 2.1.2-r9 (default-linux/amd64/2006.1, gcc-4.1.1, glibc-2.5-r0, 2.6.19-gentoo-r5 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.19-gentoo-r5 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3500+ Gentoo Base System release 1.12.9 Timestamp of tree: Sun, 25 Feb 2007 08:50:01 +0000 dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.0.31 dev-lang/python: 2.4.3-r4 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.14 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.17-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/gconf /etc/java-config/vms/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig collision-protect distlocks metadata-transfer parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict userfetch userpriv usersandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/gentoo/ " LANG="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_ALL="de_DE.UTF-8" LINGUAS="de" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/portage/local/private /usr/portage/local/layman/sunrise /usr/portage/local/layman/berkano" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X a52 aac acpi alsa amd64 bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts bzip2 cairo cli cracklib crypt cups dbus dga dri dts dvd dvdread fam firefox flac fontconfig fortran gdbm gif glitz gnutls hal iconv imlib isdnlog ithreads jikes jpeg lcms libg++ libnotify mad midi mng mp3 ncurses nptl nptlonly nsplugin ogg opengl pam pcre perl png ppds pppd pthreads python readline reflection session speex spell spl ssl startup-notification svg tcpd theora threads tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode utf8 vcd vorbis x264 xml xorg xv xvid zlib" ALSA_CARDS="via82xx" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="mouse keyboard" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" LINGUAS="de" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="r128" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LDFLAGS, MAKEOPTS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
Thank you for report, David. Fixed in cacti-cactid-0.8.6i-r1.ebuild.
