looks owned by root.

/home is not your home directory.

Out of the box emerge runs as the portage user, which will not have write permission to your home directory unless you modify the ownership/permissions.

But your real problem is a stupid original disk layout. Why don;t you decide to fix that instead of getting into cute tricks with symlinks?

Because I let my server host install it with their default disk layout. When I realise it looks pretty un-servish I had already installed http server with client website on it. The simplest for me was to move folders because I did not find any 'how to' that say it would be simple de repartition with keeping your data on.
