Comment 3 Christoph Gysin 2007-12-06 12:53:23 UTC
I just updated a friends old laptop for the first time since 2 years(!) I stumbled upon the exact same problem.

Actually, I don't understand why this works for most people.

The line that causes the problem comes from files/udev-114-root-link-2.patch, and tries to do:

install -c -D write_root_link_rule /var/tmp/portage/udev-115-r1/image//lib/udev/

If I remove the -D, udev installs fine.

Created attachment 137881 [details, diff]
patch against files/udev-114-root-link-2

This patch fixes the problem for me.
