Description Lee Holder 2004-09-19 09:30:49 UTC

/usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: line 49: ./configure: Permission denied

!!! ERROR: net-misc/dhcpcd-1.3.22_p4-r5 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 51, Exitcode 126
!!! (no error message)


Thats the exact error portage reports to me.  I'm running the update as root, as needed.  It seems to be complaining I don't have permission to run the configure script

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge sync
2. emerge -U world

Beyond this I haven't done anything out of the oridinary

Actual Results:  
/usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: line 49: ./configure: Permission denied

!!! ERROR: net-misc/dhcpcd-1.3.22_p4-r5 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 51, Exitcode 126
!!! (no error message)

I can't reproduce this. (workforsome)
I checked and the configure is indeed executable as it should be.

net-misc/dhcpcd-1.3.22_p4-r5 merges just fine for me.

Bug reporter sure you don't have a your /var//tmp mounted with noexec? 
Perhaps have some form of Trusted Path Execution enabled?

Comment 2 Lee Holder 2004-09-19 22:17:09 UTC

Fixed it with a little perl script, for some reason the permissions were wrong for me, and wouldn't let me execute it.
