Bug 120876 – misc m4 compilation fails with userpriv usersandbox

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Bob 2006-01-29 15:11:34 UTC]

libtool-1.5.22 compilation fails when USERPRIV and USERSANDBOX are used as FEATURES.  compilation is successful if USEPRIV and USERSANDBOX are removed.

this is one of a handful of packages that fail due to FEATURES=USERPRIV USERSANDBOX during an emerge -e system.  the remainder of the system files compile fine.

sorry about the "duplicates."  is this a portage issue, in which case the bugs are indeed duplicates, or is that an issue that is related to each specific ebuild, in which case the bugs are not duplicates?

[Comment 4 SpanKY 2006-01-29 16:38:58 UTC]

my guess is the permissions are all screwed up on your $TMPDIR (usually /tmp)

i've purged all data from the /tmp directory and the /var/tmp directories.  i've deleted the ccache data, and i've turned off ccache.  compilation still fails when userpriv and usersandbox are specified as features.

so it appears that your guess wasn't accurate.  do you have any other recommendations on where the user should search to address this problem -- other than the ebuilds themselves?

[Comment 6 SpanKY 2006-01-29 17:53:33 UTC]

i didnt say the contents, i said the permissions

look at `ls -ld /tmp /var/tmp`

[Comment 7 Bob 2006-01-29 20:41:38 UTC]

oops.  needed to chmod o+t to set the sticky bit on /tmp.  thanks for your help.  closing invalid.
