Description Jan Drugowitsch 2003-12-16 09:55:08 UTC 
When emerging detex-2.7 I get the following message:
[snip]
>>> Unpacking source...
>>> Unpacking detex-2.7.tar to /var/tmp/portage/detex-2.7/work
/usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: line 20: Makefile: Permission denied

!!! ERROR: dev-tex/detex-2.7 failed.
!!! Function src_unpack, Line 24, Exitcode 1
!!! sed failed

This error stems from the sed command in line 20 of the detex ebuild. The permissions I get for the Makefile after unpacking are
-r--r--r--    1 portage  portage      1899 May 12  1999 Makefile

Hence, to resolve this problem, write permission has to be added to the Makefile. I didn't attach a corrected ebuild as I'm not sure if this occurs for every user as I'm the first one to file a bug about it. The modifications to the ebuild would be fairly easy, though.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge detex
Comment 1 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2003-12-16 15:54:40 UTC 
turn off userpriv/usersandbox in FEATURES
Comment 2 Mamoru KOMACHI (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-12-16 15:58:53 UTC 
I reached the same conclusion. It is userpriv/usersandbox issue...
Comment 3 Jan Drugowitsch 2003-12-17 01:26:11 UTC 
you are right:
doesn't work with FEATURES="sandbox userpriv usersandbox"
works with no features set
Comment 4 Mike Gardiner (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-12-19 20:42:01 UTC 
okay, good work.
