I just got this:
% ebuild gpm-1.20.1-r5.ebuild digest
!!! Problem with sandbox binary. Disabling...

!!! File system problem. (Bad Symlink?)
!!! Fetching may fail: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ''
!!! No write access to /
!!! File gpm-1.20.1.tar.bz2 isn't fetched but unable to get it.

I solved it by uncommenting the DISTDIR=${PORTDIR}/distfiles line in my
etc/make.conf.  The default is apparently set before the ${PORTDIR}
variable is set:


% ebuild gpm-1.20.1-r5.ebuild digest
!!! Problem with sandbox binary. Disabling...
