Recently I notice that if my Portage fails to emerge some packages, Portage does not say "if you need support, please put your /var/tmp/portage/xx-xx/xx/temp/build.log" any more. It only says "failed to emerge xx-xx/xxx-9.9.9". In order to correctly upload information, I set PORT_LOGDIR, but it collects too many things and I do not want to save all these logs. How can I get the original logging way work? Does it have something to do with ELOG settings? Thank you for all your help.

And really portage does not create any /var/tmp/portage/xx-xx/xx/temp/build.log any more.
FEATURES=sesandbox disables build.log due to the security policy which triggers bug 162404. However, we can enable it by default now, since we now use a pty device to capture ebuild output and the security policy apparently allows that (otherwise PORT_LOGDIR wouldn't work for you). So, we can update the logic to enable build.log if a pty device is available (if a pty device is not available we'll have to use a normal pipe and that will trigger bug 162404).
Created attachment 196290 [details, diff] enable build.log when FEATURES=sesandbox is enabled If this patch is saved as /tmp/sesandbox_logging.patch, then it can be applied as follows: patch /usr/lib/portage/pym/portage/__init__.py /tmp/sesandbox_logging.patch
Aha, it sounds like that I found something left behind our minds. And it is supported now.
This is fixed in 2.2_rc34.
This is fixed in 2.1.7. Note: Due to bug #287648, you might have a problem if you enable USE=python3 on selinux, but we can handle that later if somebody files a bug.
