Hi, sorry for my belated response. Unfortunately I cannot reproduce your issue. As you have enabled the *daemon* USE flag, the dedicated user/group and its home directory was supposed to be created in pkg_setup(). But somehow your portage skipped that phase, hence the "No such file or directory" produced by pkg_postinst(), which expected for the user/group/homedir to exist.
I can confirm that building monero-0.12.3.0 without USE=daemon works. However, I got another problem with current monero-0.13.0.2 (see bug #669292).

Reopening 'cause unfortunately this still happens with current 0.13.0.2 when building with USE=daemon: stat: cannot stat '/var/lib/monero': No such file or directory * Fixing /var/lib/monero permissions BTW what should be installed in '/var/lib/monero'? All relevant binaries including monerod are installed in /usr/bin.
No longer reproducible on my machine.
