Then the ebuild hung until jugdement day.
Has anyone a idea?

I do not experience this same problem.  It emerges without so much as a hiccup 
for me.  What version of portage are you using?  I am using 2.0.38 without any 
problems. 

[Comment 2 Regin Larsen 2002-10-12 07:36:12 UTC]

I'm getting the same error with portage 2.0.38.

[Comment 3 Alex 2002-10-13 13:44:46 UTC]

I'am using portage 2.0.38 too. 

[Comment 4 Ryan Shaw 2002-10-13 20:42:02 UTC]

I am also experiencing this problem with portage 2.0.38.

Here is some more context:

Note that I have foomatic installed under /usr/local (there is no
ebuild for foomatic).

same problem for me, here. i've got tar working like crazy for hours (i stopped
after 12 hours...)

[Comment 8 Nick Hadaway 2002-10-17 13:43:11 UTC]

The reported problem appears to be due to foomatic being installed on your 
system (not via portage as we don't have foomatic in portage)...

I am currently working on adding foomatic to portage so we can have a more 
complete printing system installation.

I will post again on this bug when I get foomatic added and testing finished on 
gimp-print

[Comment 9 Nick Hadaway 2002-10-17 14:40:07 UTC]

foomatic has been added to portage.  With this package added to portage I 
finally experience the problem as reported with gimp-print.  I am working 
through install issues right now.

[Comment 10 Nick Hadaway 2002-10-17 15:08:03 UTC]

I have uploaded a new gimp-print-4.2.2.ebuild which should have all required 
fixes.  It now depends on foomatic and should not be sandboxing anymore. :)

Please test this new ebuild and let me know how things go.

[Comment 11 Regin Larsen 2002-10-18 06:27:33 UTC]

Gimp-print compile fine now and things seems to work as they should.

Nice work Nick :-)
