12 Since we have a prefix USE flag now (injected always in prefix), I just
13 did it like [1], but as
14 use prefix || chown ...
15
16 I don't use PORTAGE_INST_UID because I think that's not "root" on normal
17 systems.

19 Note that this can also be used like:
20 DEPEND="!prefix? ( sys-apps/shadow )"

27 Fixed the same way. Need to find a way to get rid of the ugly prefix
28 not in USE warning though...
