Comment 1 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2008-11-25 19:44:38 UTC 
does this need root privileges?
Comment 2 Peter Waller 2008-11-26 13:13:57 UTC 
well it worked for me off the bat, without root privileges - and it gave me functionality above that of what was installed on the system. Note that this isn't the filesystem itself, but the tools that are associated with it (aklog, for example)

Did you need a slew of dependancies that you didn't report?

Had to ecopy all of these: 
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy ">=sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.7-r2".
(dependency required by "sys-apps/module-init-tools-3.5" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "net-fs/openafs-kernel-1.4.7" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "net-fs/openafs-1.4.7" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "openafs" [argument])

Which led me to baselayout, which we don't have in prefix. We can workaround this but I am intrigued as to how you got it installed.
Comment 4 Peter Waller 2008-12-02 19:13:14 UTC 
Ahh, crapsicle!

I had net-fs/openafs-kernel-1.4.7 in my /etc/portage/profile/packages.provided, which I neglected to mention because I only did a diff against the ebuild..

The package does seem to work, anyway. Sorry about that.

Ok, added. Another possibility would be to do !prefix? ( net-fs/openafs-kernel ) in the ebuild. Not sure which is better so I just package.masked it for now referencing this bug.
