Using crossdev, portage's acct-user/ntp-0.ebuild does not modify the passwd file on the target system. But it modifies the host system. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Host: /etc/passwd contains ntp:x:123:123:user for ntp daemon; user account removed @ 2020-06-15:/dev/null:/sbin/nologin armv6j-raspberry-linux-gnueabihf-emerge -av acct-user/ntp-0 After this, passwd contains ntp:x:123:123:user for ntp daemon:/dev/null:/sbin/nologin But /usr/armv6j-raspberry-linux-gnueabihf/etc/passwd is not changes as it should be. This is a general problem with acct-user/*.ebuild. Maybe acct-group/*.ebuild are also affected. Actual Results: /etc/passwd must not be changed. Expected Results: /usr/armv6j-raspberry-linux-gnueabihf/etc/passwd should be changed.
