[Comment 1 Zac Medico 2007-01-30 23:36:15 UTC]

Actually, 700 is the correct permissions (adjustable via PORTAGE_WORKDIR_MODE).  The inconsistency comes from a chmod call inside the unpack() function.  That's fixed in svn r5842.

[Comment 2 Zac Medico 2007-02-02 03:16:55 UTC]

This has been released in 2.1.2-r6.

[Comment 3 Xake 2007-02-06 11:59:37 UTC]

So this is why I can not cd into ${WORKDIR} with a user added to group portage anymore (which I think would make more sense in at least a 0750 kind of way).

So where is this wonderful thing documented? At least not in the manpage for make.conf (where I looked. twice)...

[Comment 4 Zac Medico 2007-02-06 18:18:39 UTC]

PORTAGE_WORKDIR_MODE was added for bug 8688 and apparently it's undocumented except in /etc/make.globals.  I'll add it to the make.conf.5 manpage.
