Exiting I dont use samba, i've tried to search for samba-related USE flags and i removed completely ~/.xbmc/, just in case. Here's the output of emerge xbmc -vp [ebuild R ] media-tv/xbmc-9.11-r3 USE="aac alsa avahi midi sse sse2 (-altivec) -debug -joystick -profile -pulseaudio -vdpau -css -xrandr" Reproducible: Always
xbmc will create ~/.smb/smb.conf for you. if the files doesnt exist, it's because it wasnt able to create ~/.smb/ and then write out the file. run xbmc through strace to figure out why it cant write that location
