I'm seeing several permissions-related errors during stage3 of bootstrap-prefix; they start with a message saying my user does not seem to exist. Furthermore (and I'm not sure if this is related): I can't actually do the stages in sequence. Trying to run stage2 or stage3 gives me an error saying emerge was not found ("did you boogstrap stage1?"), even if I run it right after a successful stage1. It gets to stage3 if I run the script without an action, though... Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. ./bootstrap-prefix.sh 2. Accept all default prompts 3. Wait for error to appear. Actual Results: multiple errors: portage: 'elondres' user or 'ADDomain Users' group missing. In Prefix Portage this is quite dramatic since it means you have thrown away yourself. Re-add yourself or re-bootstrap Gentoo Prefix. *** WARNING *** For security reasons, only system administrators should be *** WARNING *** allowed in the portage group.

Also, they reported seeing their user present in $EPREFIX/etc/passwd; on my system, $EPREFIX/etc/passwd does not exist.

(Note that running stages manully tends to be a bit fragile (it's usually best to just run the script and it'll pick up at the right point by itself).) I've never seen this kind of issue on macOS before. Is your Mac part of AD/somehow managed with corporate authentication/LDAP/??? I know somebody bootstrapped successfully on macOS 11 or macOS 12 within the last few days, so I don't think it's general breakage (not that this helps you, just an interesting observation).

Ah, that’s reassuring. I was worried I had broken something else to cause that.
