Some other things to try after @system if the problem persists: Check the ownership and access rights of /etc/group: $ stat /etc/group File: /etc/group Size: 855 Blocks: 8 IO Block: 4096 regular file Device: 80ah/2058d Inode: 1055521 Links: 1 Access: (0644/-rw-r--r--) Uid: ( 0/ root) Gid: ( 0/ root) Access: 2020-10-25 16:25:42.814894971 +0000 Modify: 2020-10-25 16:25:42.815894988 +0000 Change: 2020-10-25 16:25:42.892896366 +0000 Birth: 2020-10-25 16:25:42.814894971 +0000 Check the particular group ID: $ grep :7: /etc/group lp:x:7:lp Emerge cups which installs lp: emerge -1aDv net-print/cups Then try again as suggested: emerge -1aDv acct-group/lp
