i dont think that's where it is hanging emerge it again and this time run `ps uax` / `pstree` on another terminal and post the results local automount issue: root 25652 0.0 0.0 2576 396 pts/3 S+ 10:23 0:00 touch ///home/.keep root 25653 0.0 0.1 17172 1756 ? D 10:23 0:00 /usr/sbin/automount --timeout 60 /home yp auto.home which has nothing to do with baselayout |
While emerging sys-apps/baselayout-1.11.13-r1, it hangs forever here: * Creating directories and .keep files. * Some of these might fail if they're read-only mounted * filesystems, for example /dev or /proc. That's okay! * can't create /dev/.keep * can't create /dev/pts/.keep Sure enough, I do not have write permissions there, however I believe the ebuild should die instead of hanging. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Make sure using devfs instead of udev 2. emerge baselayout 3. Actual Results: --- !empty dir /lib64/rcscripts/awk --- !empty dir /lib64/rcscripts --- !empty dir /lib64 --- !empty dir /etc --- !empty dir /dev --- !empty dir /bin --- !targe sym /usr/sbin/update-modules --- !targe sym /usr/sbin/MAKEDEV --- !targe sym /sbin/update-modules --- !targe sym /dev/MAKEDEV >>> original instance of package unmerged safely. * Creating directories and .keep files. * Some of these might fail if they're read-only mounted * filesystems, for example /dev or /proc. That's okay! * can't create /dev/.keep * can't create /dev/pts/.keep [hangs here] Expected Results: Exit emerge with an error
