Again, fixed in svn. /var/lib/freevo is now no longer needed when
running freevo as user.
Running freevo:
directory items with a '.' are getting stripped like file extensions
Not fixed, I added it to the bugs list.
Had some time to dive into freevo's inner workings and made a patch for this.

[Freevo-users] Weekly 2.0 SVN Update
Hi, again an update on current SVN. o The config format now has completly changed to the new kaa.config based ini format. This means no local_config.py and no freevo_config.py anymore. Call 'freevo setup' after updating. o Some plugins are broken now because they still need the old style config. If someone has some time, please send a patch. The plugins are all located in WIP/broken_plugins. I removed the follwing plugins today: - some idlebar plugins - input.event_device I can't test the plugin. It would be nice if someone could port this plugin to the new config code (see x11.py or lirc.py as example). Note: the config itself is in input/config.cxml and input/plugins/config.cxml. - input.dfbevents I can't test it and it needs to be activated when dfb is working again. We need someone to take over the dfb port of freevo. Please contact us. - mixer and ossmixer They should be merged into one plugin. The config of this plugin (maybe called volctl) needs to be in plugins/config.cxml. If you want to help, this is your change. I also need people to test current svn.

You'll get a sandbox violation writing everywhere except the staging area.
The staging area is a temporary install image where portage installs the
application before committing it to the live filesystem.
So yes, you would get a violation for writing to /tmp
If you want to make changes to the live filesystem you can do so in the
ebuilds pgk_preinst and pkg_postint functions.
If you simply want to create an additional directory (like the LOGDIR) you can
do this in the src_install function. I imagine it would be something like
this:
# dev-python/freevo-core.ebuild
src_install() {
# call the distutils.eclass install function
# this uses setup.py to install the appliction
# we have to call this because we override the src_install function
distutils_src_install
# create the logdirectory with world writable permissions
# and tell portage to keep the directory even if it's empty
# this creates a directory in the staging area, not the live filesystem
diropts -m0777
keepdir /var/log/freevo
}
The ebuild 5 manpage [1] has more information about what goes where and what
tools you can use to achieve certain goals.
Automatically creating systemwide files/directories when importing a module is
a bad combination on a distro like gentoo. These things should be done when
installing rather then at runtime (as shown in the src_install function
above). A sanity check to see if certain files/directies exist at runtime
should be enough.
For userspecific settings/logging it's no problem as the portage user is
allowed to write to it's own $HOME (which is removed after the install is
successfull)
Some additional information about gentoo's sandbox can be found at [2].
