I do have IPC/PID/NET_NS enabled in my kernel as the einfo says. It seems this only started happening after upgrading from sys-apps/portage-2.3.89-r3. emerge --info to follow Reproducible: Always

My guess is likely because of UTS namespace not being enabled, which portage doesn't warn about nor CONFIG_GENTOO_LINUX_PORTAGE enables. There was a thread about this not that long ago: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1111260.html Relevant commit: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/portage.git/commit?id=28ce410d2aa2eb33d0e61fbf272e1929b734622d Thinking back (having posted in that thread), I should've filed a bug myself about this before this got stabilized. Sorry.
Aha I missed that, thank you. Leaving open in case devs want to warn in the ebuild and/or add it to CONFIG_GENTOO_LINUX_PORTAGE.
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 680456 ***
The ebuild has CONFIG_CHECK="~UTS_NS" now: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=df8b23f97740c1f87501b552af8081aba99b8956 I've opened bug 722772 for the CONFIG_GENTOO_LINUX_PORTAGE update. Thanks for the report!
