when you emerge systemconfigurator-2.0.9, the install phase fails as the install script tries to install out of the sandbox into the /usr/share/man/man5 directory. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge app-admin/systemconfigurator 2. 3. Actual Results: install -d /usr/share/man/man1/../man5 && \ /usr/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" -e pod2man "--" "--section=5" systemconfig.conf.pod /usr/share/man/man1/../man5/systemconfig.conf.5 && \ cd .. ACCESS DENIED chmod: /usr/share/man/man5 Expected Results: should install cleanly can be fixed by changing \t\$(POD2MAN5_EXE) systemconfig.conf.pod \$(INSTALLMAN1DIR)/../man5/systemconfig.conf.5 && \\ in Makefile.PL to \t\$(POD2MAN5_EXE) systemconfig.conf.pod \$(DESTINSTALLMAN1DIR)/../man5/systemconfig.conf.5 && \\ balblair systemconfigurator # emerge info Portage 2.0.50-r9 (default-x86-2004.0, gcc-3.3.3, glibc-2.3.3.20040420-r0, 2.6.7-gentoo-r9) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.7-gentoo-r9 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2000+ Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16 Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r3 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-mcpu=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-mcpu=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X alsa apm arts avi berkdb cdr crypt cups doc dvd emacs encode esd f2c foomaticdb gdbm gif gnome gpm gtk gtk2 gtkhtml imap imlib java jpeg kde ldap libg++ libwww linguas_ar linguas_el linguas_en_GB linguas_ja linguas_ms linguas_zh_CN mad maildir mikmod motif mozilla mpeg ncurses nls oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl png python qt quicktime readline sdl slang spell ssl svga tcpd tetex tex truetype usb vorbis x86 xml2 xmms xosd xv zlib"
