On dev.g.o, redlizard initiated to install /space/prefix-whitelists/ back in 2014, using scripts from https://github.com/redlizard/prefix-whitelists But things have changed since, now fixed in https://github.com/gentoo/prefix-whitelists These scripts still are run by some cron job, although I fail to find the crontab for, nor do I have write access to /space/prefix-whitelists/. So these steps are necessary as root at dev.g.o: *) Bump prefix portage for EAPI 6 support: Along /space/prefix-whitelists/portage/README, but with prefix-portage-2.2.28 version: $ rm -rf /space/prefix-whitelists/portage/{usr,var} $ sed -i -e 's/2.2.10/2.2.28/g' /space/prefix-whitelists/portage/README $ wget http://dev.gentoo.org/~grobian/distfiles/prefix-portage-2.2.28.tar.bz2 $ tar xf prefix-portage-2.2.28.tar.bz2 $ cd prefix-portage-2.2.28 $ ./configure --prefix=/space/prefix-whitelists/portage/usr --with-offset-prefix=/space/prefix-whitelists/portage --with-portage-user=root --with-portage-group=root && make && make install *) Switch upstream of scripts repo: $ cd /space/prefix-whitelists/scripts/ $ sed -i -e 's/redlizard/gentoo/' .git/config $ git pull *) Remove mercurial based prefix tree: $ rm -rf /space/prefix-whitelists/home/prefix-tree Thanks!
Done that.

(In reply to Michael Haubenwallner from comment #2) > Thanks! Let's see what happens at next cron call. So... nothing useful yet: As that cronjob seems to run as the nobody:exp_prefix user, the scripts fail to run portage from /space/prefix-whitelists/portage/usr, as this has 0700 permission for root:root. Probably that portage should be owned by nobody:exp_prefix - after reinstalling with: ./configure ... --with-portage-user=nobody --with-portage-group=exp_prefix
if I recall correctly the whole /space/distfiles-local thing disappeared
(In reply to Fabian Groffen from comment #4) > if I recall correctly the whole /space/distfiles-local thing disappeared /space/prefix-whitelists still exists; but it looks like we have not run the automation to update it in some time. Is it something you still need (how is prefix-portage distributed today?) -A
I just use dev.gentoo.org and private servers for this now.
