System a: emerge --buildpkg app-emulation/qemu Builds and installs qemu including acct-group/qemu acct-user/qemu System b: emerge --usepkg app-emulation/qemu with binpkgs NFS-shared with system a builds and installs qemu but NOT required acct-group and acct-user packages
>Builds and installs qemu including acct-group/qemu acct-user/qemu That sounds strange, qemu doesn't install nor use acct-{user,group}/qemu acct-user/qemu is used by libvirt, and acct-group/qemu by vde. On my non-binpkg system with qemu installed (no libvirt/vde), I have neither. qemu itself does install acct-group/kvm though
(In reply to Ionen Wolkens from comment #1) > acct-user/qemu is used by libvirt, and acct-group/qemu by vde. But given qemu user use the group as well, that means libvirt pulls both indirectly. I'd assume that if you install the binpkg of libvirt you'll get what you've been expecting.
Installed binary packages of qemu, libvirt, and virt-manager and still got no qemu user.
Oh I see, only libvirt-7.0.0 has it in RDEPEND, stable 6.8.0 doesn't. There's already a stabilization request for 7.0.0 though (bug #770124), so that will be fixed soon.
Technically a duplicate of fixed bug #762631, but still relevant until 7.0.0 is stable.
