I too ran into this. I am manually working around it but it looks like this is getting called by the portage user and that's why the access denied. I have verified that this happens in all versions. Manuall install from /var/tmp/portage/mail-filter/spamassassin-<version>/work/Mail-SpamAssassin-<version> works as root +1 Thanks to Matthew Gregory for the fix. The actual commands are: # cd /var/tmp/portage/mail-filter/spamassassin-<version>/work/Mail-SpamAssassin-<version> # make install # . /etc/make.conf # ebuild $PORTDIR/mail-filter/spamassassin/spamassassin-<version>.ebuild qmerge # cd ../../.. # rm -rf spamassassin-* Severity needs a bump to 'critical'. This broke spamassassin on my system for a couple days, deluging me with spam. E-mail is unusable in this day and age without spam filtering, and it took me hours to find this fix. This needs to be fixed immediately. I was having this same problem workaround / fix: FEATURES="-sandbox" emerge -va spamassassin Allows it to merge successfully *** Bug 268305 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Marking this a duplicate of the newer bug since I just attached a patch to that one. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 289113 *** |
