Its not possible to set acl in the USE flag. I had to edit the ebuilds for making my setup work. Samba with acl, and ext3 with acl on top of it, is stable on ppc64. --- g-pdc samba # ls -la /etc/make.profile lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 42 Nov 29 13:21 /etc/make.profile -> /usr/portage/profiles/default-ppc64-2004.3 g-pdc samba # g-pdc samba # USE="acl" emerge info Portage 2.0.51-r3 (default-ppc64-2004.3, gcc-3.4.1, glibc-2.3.4.20041102-r0, 2.6.8-jni ppc64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.8-jni ppc64 POWER4 (gp) Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16 Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r5 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.5-r1 Binutils: sys-devel/binutils-2.15.90.0.3-r3 Headers: sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.4.22 Libtools: sys-devel/libtool-1.5.2-r7 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="ppc64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -mcpu=power4 -mtune=power4" CHOST="powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu" COMPILER="" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -mcpu=power4 -mtune=power4" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache distlocks sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp.du.se/pub/os/gentoo/ http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://localhost/gentoo-portage" USE="berkdb crypt f77 foomaticdb fortran gdbm kerberos ldap libclamav nls oav pam perl ppc64 python quotas readline samba ssl tcpd winbind" g-pdc samba # ---
acl is in ppc64's use.mask. I'll check why this is and if I can remove it from that list.
acl was removed from use.mask.
