What's wrong exactly?
Couldn't merge into filesystem. I don't know if it was just my problem or it is more common filure.
dedalus kdelibs # ls -l /usr/lib/blender/plugins/include lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 71 30 dic 04:13 /usr/lib/blender/plugins/include -> /var/tmp/portage/blender-2.36/work/blender/source/blender/blenpluginapi
workaround: rm /usr/lib/blender/plugins/include ebuild /usr/portage/media-gfx/blender/blender-2.36-r1.ebuild install
ok, I'm adding an check for that. in the mean time just remove that symlink
please do more than add a check, a symlink from the filesystem pointing inside the sandbox is not very good. Is the symlink created from the previous version of blender or from something in the actual blender compile (if so is sandbox breaked ? )?
aaaarrrrgggggggg I did it again !!!!!! workaround should be: rm /usr/lib/blender/plugins/include ebuild /usr/portage/media-gfx/blender/blender-2.36-r1.ebuild merge install postinstall
the r1 should remove that symlink, it isn't working yet?
Should be fixed, reopen if isn't
