Bug 155127 – emerging gnome fails w/ packages attempting to overwrite python files triggering sandbox violations

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description James Browning 2006-11-14 05:27:46 UTC]

emerging packages pycairo java-bcprov ant-core libglade and cyrus-sasl (among others) fail. The packages attempt to unlink andf then overwrite python files. The attempts typically occur after configuration, but but before compilation. The compilation process is usually successful. The installation process fails due to the sandbox violations.

We need to see some errors (and don't file mass bugs about completely unrelated ebuilds). 

[Comment 2 James Browning 2006-12-03 12:48:04 UTC]

This looks vaugely (kind of sort of) like bug 30725. but not really.
I am testing the suggested solution now, and it seems to work.

[Comment 3 James Browning 2006-12-04 16:13:13 UTC]

This definately appears to be a duplicate of bug #30725. Setting 'PYTHON_DONTCOMPILE=1' resolved all the python related errors. I have logs of the build proceses involved at http://www.geocities.com/countkase/foo.html .
If you need additional info just yell at me.
