[gentoo-dev] sandbox access violations while running matlab binary installer
Hi all, I'm trying to create an ebuild to install matlab MCR on gentoo. The installer InstallShileld try to create directory /root/InstallShield ;-) mkdir is run by java binary that try this. So I have no access to change it. There is no option to provide InstallShield it's relative install path. I can provide matlab's install path and other options, but this made permanent /root/InstallShield What can I do? Thanks, Kfir

Re: [gentoo-dev] sandbox access violations while running matlab binary installer
The best solution is to figure out why the directory is being created there and
whether it is customizable. Maybe the code actually is creating
$HOME/InstallShield? Then export HOME=${T} in your ebuild.

Portage already sets HOME to a subdirectory of ${PORTAGE_TMPDIR).
Setting it to ${T} will make no difference there.

For examples, check, # cd /usr/portage # grep addpredict */*/*.ebuild And same for addwrite. (And I still believe this discussion should be in the gentoo-user ML, but since others have replied too, might as well.)
