However, this problem can be circumvented by (temporarily) replacing FEATURE="sandbox", with FEATURE="-sandbox -usersandbox" in /etc/make.conf. Do this at your own risk! However, the real solution to the problem is to re-emerge foomatic-filters, as suggested by Frédéric in a later post. The cause of the problem is (as he said) documented in bug 131533: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=131533 Either solution, downgrading foomatic-db or re-emerging foomatic-filters works fine. Thanks to all for their help. Cheers, Dave -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
