ERROR: app-arch/dump-0.4.39 failed. !!! Function einstall, Line 524, Exitcode 2 !!! einstall failed !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message. For some reason Dump needs user called 'man' and for some reason I don't have a user called 'man'. I don't recall doing anything to the users with uid <500 so I presume that the problem is for some other origin. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. On updated system (2005.0)run 'emerge dump' 2. 3. Actual Results: emerge exits with error.

Hmm .. seems like your baselayout is a bit broken .. oO (see http://www.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/rc-scripts/etc/group?root=gentoo-src&view=markup) But on the other hand, the ebuild shouldn't even install the files as group man. By the way, I did a emerge -B =dump-0.4.39 and works without any errors.
Wooops ;) Ignore the comment on the man-group. It actually installs them as man:tty. $ ll /usr/share/man/man8/*dump* -rw-r--r-- 1 man tty 3.3K Jul 7 13:08 /usr/share/man/man8/dump-rmt.8.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 man tty 8.4K Jul 7 13:08 /usr/share/man/man8/dump.8.gz Shouldn't this been installed as root:root as all the other man-pages?
econf --with-dumpdatespath=/etc/dumpdates --with-binowner=root \ --with-bingroup=root --with-manowner=root --with-mangroup=root leads to this: BINOWNER is root BINGRP defaults to tty BINMODE defaults to 0755 MANOWNER defaults to man MANGRP defaults to tty MANMODE defaults to 0644 DUMPDATESPATH is /etc/dumpdates while a manual ./configure leads to this: BINOWNER is root BINGRP defaults to tty BINMODE defaults to 0755 MANOWNER is root MANGRP defaults to tty MANMODE defaults to 0644 DUMPDATESPATH is /etc/dumpdates A possibility to solve this is to hardcode (or even patch/sed the Makefile-vars)
Created attachment 62831 [details] Fix the owners/groups of binarys and man-pages Maybe something like this, a dev should have a deeper look at it, please :)
Created attachment 62832 [details] Fix the owners/groups of binarys and man-pages
Created attachment 62833 [details] Change default {BIN,MAN}OWNER/GROUP Why do it on 5+ files if a sed on two files is possible ?! :) Just changing the default MANOWNER, MANGRP and BINGRP to root in configure and configure.in.
fixed in 0.4.40
