After a hiatus I am trying to create my own ebuild repository again. I |
2 |
need a way to test the separate steps (fetch, prepare, comiple, install |
3 |
etc.) and I would like to do all of them as a regular user (not root, |
4 |
not portage). I tried what I thought was the most natural attempt - run |
5 |
the ebuild program under fakeroot, but it still breaks trying to change |
6 |
permissions of things in PORTAGE_TMPDIR (of course override the value of |
7 |
this variable). I don't understand this - it looks just like what |
8 |
fakeroot was intended to help with? Anyway, I'm not married to fakeroot, |
9 |
just looking for a way to do these test runs. |

I remember that I could do this the first time, a couple of years ago. |
12 |
But I don't remember how :-( |
