Thanks for reporting. Will look at it soon.
I believe the user/group creation needs to moved to pkg_setup() since pkg_preinst() is called after src_install().
BT, you are right, thank you! I will open a pull request to fix this.
Sounds like the possible source of the error has been identified but I thought it worth mentioning that the ebuild I posted wasn't mine, it was from this overlay https://github.com/armills/overlay
