If I emerge either ebuild for splitvt, I get an access violation and portage exits out: access_wr: /etc/utmp Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge splitvt 1.5 Build fails 2. ??? 3.

Created attachment 64178 [details] a new ebuild + a patch for the "weird" internal config.c Assuming that you've got the same sandbox violation error that I've got. Here is a new ebuild that patches the "weird" internal config.c so that it does not try to open "/var/run/utmp" for writing... To test the new ebuild: * extract the files into "/usr/portage/app-misc" * run "ebuild splitvt-1.6.5-r2.ebuild digest" from within "/usr/portage/app-misc/splitvt" * emerge splitvt Cheers, Axel
Aaron, I've added your email-address (taken form the Changelog) to "CC:". Don't know, if this helps to assign/resolve the bug quicker. Cheers, Axel

Fix worked for me.
I can't reproduce this w/ 1.6.5-r1 at all.
