Bug 50892 – subversion sandbox access violation when trying to emerge subversion 1.0.1

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 51804
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Justin Patrin 2004-05-12 16:33:20 UTC]

When I try to emerge subversion, it gets nearly done with installing to /var/tmp/portage and has a sandbox access violation. Here's the output around the access violation itself:

ranlib /var/tmp/portage/subversion-1.0.1/image//usr/lib/libsvn_swig_perl-1.a
chmod 644 /var/tmp/portage/subversion-1.0.1/image//usr/lib/libsvn_swig_perl-1.a
libtool: install: warning: remember to run `libtool --finish /usr/lib'
ACCESS DENIED  mkdir:     /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/i686-linux/auto
mkdir /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/i686-linux/auto: Permission denied at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.2/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 176
make: *** [pure_site_install] Error 255
installing html book

Here's the error at the end of the emerge:

making executable: /usr/lib/libsvn_swig_py-1.so.0.0.0
making executable: /usr/lib/libsvn_wc-1.so.0.0.0
>>> Completed installing into /var/tmp/portage/subversion-1.0.1/image/

Does it work if you manually create that directory?

[Comment 2 Justin Patrin 2004-05-13 09:00:09 UTC]

Now it fails on mkdir of
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/i686-linux/auto/SVN

Trying again....

[Comment 3 Justin Patrin 2004-05-13 09:38:15 UTC]

And now
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/i686-linux/auto/SVN/_Fs

Again....

Now I get this:

open_wr:   /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/i686-linux/auto/SVN/_Fs/_Fs.bs
chmod:     /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/i686-linux/auto/SVN/_Fs/_Fs.bs
open_wr:   /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/i686-linux/auto/SVN/_Fs/_Fs.so
chmod:     /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/i686-linux/auto/SVN/_Fs/_Fs.so
mkdir:     /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/i686-linux/auto/SVN/_Ra


Looks like this just isn't going to work. Shouldn't this be staying in the sandbox?

[Comment 5 Justin Patrin 2004-05-13 11:26:29 UTC]

I disabled the sandbox (FEATURES="-sandbox") and it worked fine. This still needs to be fixed to work with the sandbox, though.

[Comment 6 Justin Patrin 2004-06-22 15:38:58 UTC]

This happens with the newest subversion as well. I had to disable the sandbox to fix it. PLEASE fix the install script.

[Comment 7 Paul de Vrieze (RETIRED) 2004-06-23 01:39:58 UTC]

It doesn't happen for me. Maybe the fact that I'm using userpriv/usersandbox influences it. Could PLEASE a perl developer help me with this. I know next to nothing about the perl installation system.
