Why does it use RESTRICT=userpriv? There's no comment in the ebuild and package seems to install fine without it. RESTRICT=userpriv is not something to be used lightly. Please revise it and either remove it, or add a comment why it is needed. In the latter case, please keep the bug open until the underlying issue is fixed so that RESTRICT can be removed.
Well, I couldn't figure out why RESTRICT=userpriv was there, so I removed it in the new version 0.42. I added myself as maintainer, so if there was some corner case that I just broke, I'm sure I'll hear about it. commit 79e2115d8a44bbec89f09f7b328313ee3dc86a16 Author: Michael Orlitzky <mjo@gentoo.org> Date: Fri Aug 5 23:01:07 2016 -0400 app-laptop/tp_smapi: new version 0.42. This adds a new version 0.42, and updates the ebuild a bit. First, the ebuild was updated to EAPI=6. Then the RESTRICT=userpriv was removed, as it no longer seems to have any effect: I can install the package fine with FEATURES=userpriv. Next, an obsolete kernel version check was removed. Every version of every flavor of Linux sources we have in the tree is already newer than 2.6.19. Finally, einstalldocs (from EAPI=6) was used to install the current set of docs as well as a TODO that had been omitted. I have added myself as the maintainer of this package, since I still have hardware that it supports. Gentoo-Bug: 516570 Gentoo-Bug: 583206 Package-Manager: portage-2.2.28
