emerge mgetty stops with this error message: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------!!! emerge aborting on /usr/portage/net-dialup/mgetty/mgetty-1.1.26-r1.ebuild . the error log holds nothing but mkdir commands, the only thing that i find strange is this: ACCESS DENIED mkdir: /usr/share/texmf/fonts/pk/ljfour/public/cm mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/share/texmf/fonts/pk/ljfour/public/cm': Permission denied kpsestat: /usr/share/texmf/fonts/pk/ljfour/public/cm/..: No such file or directory chmod: too few arguments Try `chmod --help' for more information. this repeats like 20 times for different files in the texmf directory. i am emerging as root, so i dont quite understand the "permission denied". maybe its an error in the texmf package...
Matt, I know how much you love solving sandbox violation issues.
Looks like azarah@gentoo.org zapped this one the same day! should be fixed in mgetty-1.1.26-r2 Thanks for the report though!
