Hi, unfortunately I ran the emerge and layman in one sweep but I still hope it can be seen the Permission denied issues are probably coming from emerge itself. I admit I have symlinked /usr/portage to /scratch/usr/portage and that is likely causing the permission errors when picky rsync is used. # emerge --sync; layman -S >>> Syncing repository 'gentoo' into '/scratch/usr/portage'... * Using keys from /usr/share/openpgp-keys/gentoo-release.asc * Refreshing keys from keyserver ...

This looks like a duplicate of bug 661834. You need to chown the files to have a consistent owner, so that FEATURES=usersync will work. This should do it: chown -R portage:portage /scratch/usr/portage
Thank you for your analysis, your are right it it merely a dupe of the mentioned issue. But, why do I have to taky any action at all? Why FEATURES=usersync is needed? The host is running Gentoo for about 6 years so what did change? And nevertheless I thought it always used rsync instead of git, for general users fetching a portage tree. Anyway, I can confirm some files are owned by root.root or by mmokrejs.root which is my login name. Hmm, I use mostly 'sudo su -' from within my personal account but does that cause that original login name is retained? I could provide output of: # ls -latrR /scratch/usr/portage | grep -v 'portage portage' | grep -v '^total' | grep -v '^/scratch' | grep -v '^$' | grep -v root After inspecting # ls -latrR /scratch/usr/portage | grep -v 'portage portage' | grep -v '^total' | grep -v '^/scratch' | grep -v '^$' | grep -v root | grep -v 'portage portage' I can confirm the mmokrejs.portage files are in /scratch/usr/portage/distfiles are I ndeed fetched them manually, so that is correct. Why some are stored under mmokrejs.portage is a mystery for me, although I am indeed a member of portage group. What am I doing wrong, Zac? I will run the 'chown -R' command but am I just fixing results caused by a teporary issue which has been fixed meanwhile in emerge or is that my own ignorance?

You should only have to take action if you have portage-2.3.42 or portage-2.3.43 installed at some point, since those were the only versions affected by bug 661834. > Why FEATURES=usersync is needed? FEATURES=usersync is normally enabled by default, since portage-2.1.12.14 (see bug 477682). > The host is running Gentoo for about 6 years so > what did change? Nothing changed unless you have one of the versions of portage installed that was affected bug 661834, either portage-2.3.42 or portage-2.3.43. > And nevertheless I thought it always used rsync instead of > git, for general users fetching a portage tree. That's correct, bug 661834 only involves rsync. > Anyway, I can confirm some files are owned by root.root or by mmokrejs.root > which is my login name.

For FEATURES=usersync, the default assumption is that file ownership for all files is the same as the top-level directory (/scratch/usr/portage). If there is any deviation then you need to fix that with chown. You want the files to all be owned by a non-root user. > I can confirm the mmokrejs.portage files are in > /scratch/usr/portage/distfiles are I ndeed fetched them manually, so that is > correct.

Just make sure that all files have the same ownership as the top-level /scratch/usr/portage directory, and it will work fine. > What am I doing wrong, Zac?

It's just a temporary issue, triggered if you had portage-2.3.42 or portage-2.3.43 installed at some point, since those were the only versions affected by bug 661834.
Ok, excellent explanation, nevertheless I would have be even more happy if emerge in future told me for the very first case and hard exited with: "Just make sure that all files have the same ownership as the top-level /scratch/usr/portage directory, and it will work fine.". I think I am prone to break this when fetching manually some FETCH_RESTRICTed files and just moving them into distfiles/ dir while misusing my GID=portage rights to write in there or while misusing UID=root to push the file in there (I do both I think).

That would be nice, but the thing is, it takes time to check the ownership of files, and it would be a waste of time for emerge to check them for every sync. > I think I am prone to break this when fetching manually some FETCH_RESTRICTed files and just > moving them into distfiles/ dir while misusing my GID=portage rights to > write in there or while misusing UID=root to push the file in there (I do > both I think). The distfiles are a separate thing (default location will change for bug 378603), and those files only have to be readable by the portage user.

Actually, we could check for the exit code 23 from rsync, and output some kind of specialized message in that case.
