Hi folks, my gentoo-driven notebook has just a small harddisk, so moved /var/tmp/portage to an nfs volume (directly mounted there). This produces really strange problems, if the directory is empty: portage cannot create the directory ../$pkg/temp, but $pkg/ and several things beyond are created. Portage aborts with an exception.
I suspect some permission problem. Strange: when unmounting it, starting portage until it has created the sourcetree, moving it away, remounting and moving the already- prepared sourcetree to the now mounted nfs dir, works fine, also with other packages following. Does anyone have an idea what this can be ? cu -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt == metux IT service phone: +49 36207 519931 www: http://www.metux.de/ fax: +49 36207 519932 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cellphone: +49 174 7066481 --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
