Bug 97962 – sandbox 1.2.10 fails to compile

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Marek Zachara 2005-07-04 23:29:49 UTC]

I must admit I had so many problems with sandbox so far, i have disabled it in   
FEATURES section. But still after recent emerge sync the portage insists on it   
being installed. Is there a way to get rid of this package once and for all? 
This time it seems to be a hard dependency for debianutils  
  
   
   

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge sync 
2. emerge -uD world 
 
 
Actual Results:

Seems like an broken 2004.3 -> 2005.0 upgrade.

That is a baaaad(tm) idea to remove a feature that protects you from wrongly
written ebuilds (and hey, everyone makes mistakes, even Gentoo devs).

No, if you want to keep the portage version you are using. See above. Otherwise,
downgrade portage. The older portage version contains sandbox, but not as a
separate package.

See Bug 90846. If all suggestions there fail, disable sandbox *temporarily*.
Again, disabling sandbox globally should not ever be done. 

[Comment 3 Marek Zachara 2005-07-06 02:14:33 UTC]

yes, removing and re-emerging all emul packages fixed the problem. As per 
disabling sandbox, I really prefer to have system messed up ocasionally to not 
be able to emerge anything (this seem to be the major feature of the 
sandbox) :-D Sandbox has so long list of incredible bugs (not building itself, 
preventing of build of perfectly correct packages like perl, to sloooowing down 
the build process like 10 times) that it doesn't really make me trust it can 
help in anything :) (and yes, i have once timed the slowdown, it took about 2 
DAYS to build glibc with sandbox and a couple of hours without it - Athlon64 
2800)
