I suspect that whatever filesystem you are using for /var/tmp/portage does not have xattr support enabled. Since you're not using a hardened profile, you probably don't need xattr support. Therefore, you may want to simply set FEATURES="-xattr" in /etc/portage/make.conf. (In reply to Zac Medico from comment #5) hardened is trending the exact opposite actually :). plan is to pull pax settings out of the ELFs and into the xattrs. at some point we'll want to make that fatal on at least hardened ...

I know, but the user isn't using a hardened profile, so that's why I suggested to disable xattrs. Alternatively, he could use a filesystem with xattrs, which is useful even without hardened for xattrs like security.capability used by util-linux for /bin/ping. > at some point we'll want to make that fatal on at least hardened ... It seems to be fatal already, as shown in the attached build log. I'm really not sure that anything needs to be fixed for this bug report. Maybe it's a documentation issue? (In reply to Zac Medico from comment #7) sorry, i missed the operative "not" ;) if you set FEATURES=xattr and you don't configure the system to support it, then it should die imo. there's already a knob to avoid the failure -- don't try and enable xattrs. i'm not sure extra lines in a man page would help. this bug report is probably fairly indicative of the type of reports -- the build fails with an obscure error that isn't easily associated with FEATURES=xattrs and users would just file a bug and attach the log. i would guess the reason we're getting ENODATA instead of ENOTSUP is that the fs supports *some* xattrs, but not the namespace we expect ? should ENODATA be ignored since, by definition, there's no data to be preserved ? Hi,
it looks like I am having the same problem.
emerge $PACKAGE does a "dosbin ..." that in turn wants to run /usr/bin/install-xattr, which then returns with the error message as shown above.
Doing a small test of `install-xattr dead.letter /var/tmp/dead.letter` to reproduce, I get the same error, too.
Running the same command again, with strace, I'll get the following two interesting lines out of it:
listxattr("dead.letter", NULL, 0) = 49
listxattr("dead.letter", "system.posix_acl_access\0system.posix_acl_default\0", 49) = 49
getxattr("dead.letter", "system.posix_acl_access", 0x0, 0) = -1 ENODATA (No data available)
The first command is just to see how many bytes to allocate (49),
the second actually receives the list of extended attributes (two),
the third syscall seems to be an iteration over the retrieved list, and interestingly, even though that xattr was listed, it tells us that it's having no data for it.
Now, I do not know whether this is intended, maybe xattrs can exist with no payload attached to it (never tried),
but maybe it's sufficient for install-xattr to just mirror the behaviour by either creating an empty xattr on the target inode or by skipping it all together (or at least the system.* xattrs).
Regards,
Christian.
(In reply to Christian Parpart from comment #9) > Now, I do not know whether this is intended, maybe xattrs can exist with no > payload attached to it (never tried), What filesystem are you using? I wonder if this affects portage's internal implementation too. You can export PORTAGE_INSTALL_XATTR_IMPLEMENTATION=python in your environment, and that will allow you to test portage's python implementation.
