1 Hi,
2
3 on an Ubuntu 10.04 system, bootstrapping portage fails with:
4
5 make[2]: Entering directory
6 `/cache/ttt/prefix-20111201/tmp/portage-2.2.01.19295.1/prefix-portage-2.2.01.19295.1/bin'
7 /cache/ttt/prefix-20111201/local/bin/install -c -d -m 755 -o "luebeck"
8 -g "ldfm" /cache/ttt/prefix-20111201/local/usr/lib/portage/bin
9 /cache/ttt/prefix-20111201/local/bin/install: cannot change owner and
10 permissions of `/cache/ttt/prefix-20111201/local/usr/lib/portage/bin':
11 Operation not permitted

14 The file system is tmpfs. ldfm is the default group of the user. On
15 this system, setting the owner and group of a file which is already
16 owned by that user also fails, both with the chown executable that
17 Ubuntu installs and the one installed after bootstrapping coreutils.

19 Has anyone seen this before? Any ideas what might cause this?
