Downgrading sandbox from 1.9 to 1.6-r2 makes no difference to outcome of the build.

@sandbox-team:
We in kde team cant reproduce this, so i am going ask you as experts for sandbox matter :]

[Comment 4 Jean-Pierre de la Croix (jdelacroix) 2009-05-14 20:49:59 UTC]

I worked around it by disabling sandbox (FEATURES="-sandbox" emerge =kde-base/akonadi-4.2.3), emerging the package, and then reenabling it.

Now I can reemerge it just fine with sandbox enabled. The difference is that when I first attempted to emerge akonadi, it was while I was chrooted into the install. Now I am reemerging it on a running system and I no longer get the sandbox access violation.

It may just work because .config et al. now exist from the previous build (when I used the workaround), but that is just my guess.

i dont know what kind of insight you're looking for ... the error message seems pretty straight forward to me

/usr/bin/nepomuk-rcgen is doing mkdir(/root/.config) when it shouldnt be.  remove the dir on your system, remove userpriv/usersandbox from your FEATURES, then emerge akonadi with USE=semantic-desktop.

But isn't the point that we should be able to emerge the package with sanbox enabled, as opposed to having remove the feature just for that package?

[Comment 7 SpanKY 2009-05-16 15:59:56 UTC]

you missed the point.  akonadi and/or nepomuk are broken.  sandbox catching the error is sandbox doing the right thing.

I understood. That's why I filed a bug for akonadi to the KDE team, not for sandbox. I was just trying to provide as much information on the problem as possible.

[Comment 9 Maciej Mrozowski 2009-06-30 13:43:46 UTC]

Please try to reproduce with 4.2.4

I did not have the problem with 4.2.4

closing since user reported it fixed with newer version
