It's probably complaining if you're running as root and you've set the GPG home did to be in /home/purslow/.gnupg rather than /root/.gnupg (and owned by root:root). Otherwise try setting that directory to 0700 permission (u+rwx g-rwx o-rwx). Andrew

This seems to be the default when 'gpg' is installed. I don't see anything insecure inside the dir.

And ... usually by the sys-fs/udisks package, which performs the automounting.

[gentoo-user] trying to upgrade some old, never upgraded image for an embedded system
trying to upgrade some old, never upgraded image for an embedded system I ran into a problem I do not have a solution for: !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=dev-lang/python-exec-2:=[python_targets_pypy(-)?,python_targets_python2_7(-)?,python_targets_python3_5(-)?,python_targets_python3_6(-)?,python_targets_python3_7(-)?,python_targets_python3_8(-)?,-python_single_target_pypy(-),-python_single_target_python2_7(-),-python_single_target_python3_5(-),-python_single_target_python3_6(-),-python_single_target_python3_7(-),-python_single_target_python3_8(-)]" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - dev-lang/python-exec-::gentoo (masked by: EAPI 7) - dev-lang/python-exec-2.4.6-r1::gentoo (masked by: EAPI 7) The current version of portage supports EAPI '6'. You must upgrade to a newer version of portage before EAPI masked packages can be installed. (dependency required by "sys-apps/portage-2.3.79::gentoo" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "portage" [argument]) For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook. Trying to unmask the given packages just does not help – it keeps telling me about eapi versions not matching. Searching the internet did not give any hints other than such not working. Any idea? I've tried: emerge --sync emerge -qav python emerge -qav sys-kernel/gentoo-sources emerge -qav sys-kernel/git-sources emerge -qav sys-kernel/vanilla-sources emerge -qav sys-kernel/genkernel USE='-rsync-verify' emerge -qavO portage emerge -qavN portage <- fails emerge -qavuND @world <- fails too. Any idea? -- Thomas
[gentoo-user] Mounting USB sticks automagically.
Greetings, though I currently do not find any relevant descriptions regarding this topic on the web I must formerly have found something there, because I had set my laptop up this way, and it worked until the last reboot. Either I somehow spoiled some configuration, upgraded some package, or inadvertently changed a package's USE flag :-( Can someone please guide me to rig up my box so it again mounts plugged in USB sticks automatically to "/run/media/.../"? Sincerely, Rainer

Alternatively, you can set it in package.use: app-office/scribus PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET: python2_7 If the package supports several python versions, "-*" might come in handy. app-editors/vim PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET: -* python3_7
