When I try to emerge media-libs/pdflib-5.0.2 (as part of a php merge), I get an Access Violation. The log file contains: open_wr: /dev/random
Workaround given on IRC: FEATURES="-sandbox" emerge pdflib Prevents the emerging of php (both are unmasked packages).
sbakhos, can you paste the output of emerge pdflib here please? Also, please paste the output of `emerge info`
I just tried to reproduce it just now, but it doesn't seem to do it anymore (note, I did do a few updates since the posting of this bug), and I'm guessing one of the updates resolved it, or it wasn't a constant problem.
closing this for now -- please reopen if it happens again (and provide full details :)
