[gentoo-user] I would like to understand FEATURES=sandbox
Is there a link that explains sandboxing in gentoo? If not, can someone tell me know if I am correctly understanding the usrpriv and the sandbox feature? I have created a standard user testing: that is also a member of the (portage,adm,and sys) groups. If I have FEATURES=usrpriv sandbox in /etc/make.conf does this mean that if I type su testing - emerge planeshift that planeshift will be installed only for user testing. No other user will be able to access the install? If this is true can I then type su - emerge planeshift and I will have one local install for testing and one for everyone else (possibly the same version) If this is not what will happen can this be accomplished with portage? Thanks in advance -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

It's a good thing. that planeshift will be installed only for user testing. No other user will be able to access the install?
