Description Dirk Goettel 2006-12-02 10:37:35 UTC

Hi all

If I emerge oftpd I get this message... 

  !!! Cannot write to '/home'.
  !!! Please check permissions and directories for broken symlinks.
  !!! You may start the merge process again by using ebuild:
  !!! ebuild /usr/portage/net-ftp/oftpd/oftpd-0.3.7-r2.ebuild merge
  !!! And finish by running this: env-update

because I mount an externel home over NFS. Thereforce root can't write anything under /home. In the ebuild I saw a 'keepdir /home/ftp'?

Not an ebuild bug.
