Created attachment 330176 [details] Console output Is it possible, that I cannot merge the "linux-headers" package, if I build my kernel in a separate build directory with a unprivileged user? Have I to add the build directory to a special list of directories portage could write to? Why must portage write to that directory? The console output (and logs) will be attached. The latest kernel was build with using this build directory: /home/maggu2810/workspace/build/gentoo-sources-3.5.0

post `emerge --info --verbose` as an attachment i'm guessing you're setting $O or $KBUILD_OUTPUT or something ?
Created attachment 330208 [details] Verbose emerge info
Yes, ATM I set the KBUILD_OUTPUT environment variable to the directory that contains my build directory through the portage bashrc stuff. /etc/portage/bashrc:export KBUILD_OUTPUT="/home/maggu2810/workspace/build/$(readlink /usr/src/linux)" This is necessary to build modules. Is this forbidden for the linux-headers?
(In reply to comment #6) bashrc gets re-sourced multiple times. the eclass already unsets it, but that works if you set KBUILD_OUTPUT via make.conf (which is the expectation). i don't think setting it vai bashrc is supported.
export KBUILD_OUTPUT="/home/maggu2810/workspace/build/$(readlink /usr/src/linux)" I am using the bashrc because I could use the 'readlink /usr/src/linux' stuff, so I could update the kernel and build it to the correspondent build directory (for the version) without editing make.conf again etc. I am right, that there is no way to execute commands while make.conf is sourced? Could you give me a hint how I could easily manage that?
Okay, I will set the following line in my make.conf and do not use /usr/src/linux anymore. Instead of that linux in my build directory will be a symbolic link to the current build directory. KBUILD_OUTPUT="/home/maggu2810/workspace/build/linux" Thanks for your help!
So, could we close this bug with the following notes? Setting KBUILD_OUTPUT via /etc/portage/bashrc breaks sys-kernel/linux-headers. Setting KBUILD_OUTPUT via /etc/portage/bashrc is not supported.
(In reply to comment #10) well, this isn't specific to linux-headers. there are a lot of ebuilds that assume the environment between phases won't be messed with. bashrc violates that assumption which means it's up to users to make sure they are careful in what they do. if something breaks, then generally it's up to the user to pick up the pieces. you might still be able to use bashrc, but instead put it in a func like: pre_src_unpack() { export KBUILD_OUTPUT=...; }
does my suggestion in comment #11 help ?
I stopped using KBUILD_OUTPUT at all. Should I test the comment #11?
(In reply to Markus Rathgeb from comment #13) up to you. i don't think there's anything that needs to be changed in the eclasses or ebuilds as the use of bashrc violates guarantees provided by the spec.
So, let's close this issue. What is the resolution? Invalid?
