Created attachment 595436 [details, diff] the patch which helps me install transmission The ebuild of net-p2p/transmission uses the command below during src_install(): ``` diropts -o transmission -g transmission keepdir /var/lib/transmission ``` But it cannot be done by Gentoo Prefix, so the installation will failed. To complete the installation, I checked ${EUID} by "[[ ${EUID} == 0 ]]" before executing `diropts` command. The patch is attached as a file.
