The ebuild of the current release of glob2 fails. It seems that it tries to remove a number of files in /usr/lib/scons-0.97/SCons and for some reason the script fails, e.g. ACCESS DENIED unlink: /usr/lib/scons-0.97/SCons/__init__.pyc ACCESS DENIED unlink: /usr/lib/scons-0.97/SCons/Script/__init__.pyc ACCESS DENIED unlink: /usr/lib/scons-0.97/SCons/Action.pyc ... I have not checked all of them but for the first few cases the files are present and ought to be "unlinkable". If anyone has any suggestions for how to run an emerge with greater explanation/scripts are being run I would appreciate it. (I've tried searching all of the files in the saved work directories and cannot determine where the list of names being removed is coming from nor what commands/scripts are attempting the "unlink"s.) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge =games-strategy/glob2-0.9.3 Actual Results: Emerge seems to succeed (e.g. the compiles seem to complete successfully) but the installation process fails, apparently due to the failed "unlinks". Documentation for the failed unlinks is left in /var/log/sandbox/sandbox-#####.log. Expected Results: If the compilations succeed, any failed unlinks should be ignored.
do: emerge -C scons emerge -v scons and try again.

reopen after the steps in comment #1
The emerge -C scons and the emerge -v scons did resolve the problem so IMO this is resolved.

yes, scons is nasty.
