Salut Cedric, I just emerged net-im/minbif-1.0.3, and saw the following failures during src_install: ... chown: invalid user: `minbif:minbif' fowners failed >>> Completed installing minbif-1.0.3 into /var/tmp/portage/net-im/minbif-1.0.3/image/ Looking at the ebuild, the user and group are created in pkg_preinst. But pkg_preinst is ran after src_install, thus the fowners call fails. Thus, after merge: # ls -alH /var/lib/minbif total 8.0K drwxr-xr-x 2 minbif root 4.0K Oct 29 09:24 . drwxr-xr-x 47 root root 4.0K Oct 29 09:24 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Oct 29 09:24 .keep_net-im_minbif-0 The group is not set, but worst, the perms are not 700 but 755 !? Re-emerging the package didn't change anything, apart from removing the "invalid user" message. Checking info in the devmanual [1] make me thinks that it is not correct; enewuser should be in pkg_setup if needed during src_compile OR src_install.
