Hi, |
32 |
|
33 |
Have a look at [1] and the links therein which provide some |
34 |
info on how to work with the sandbox. Keep in mind, though, that |
35 |
these commands should only be used if there really is no other way |
36 |
(such as patching the makefile etc.) to get rid of the |
37 |
sandbox violations; the sandbox is present for a very good reason! |
38 |
An ebuild in portage that shows these commands in action would be |
39 |
app-text/ptex-3.1.8.1_p20050418 |
40 |
|
41 |
Best, |
42 |
Markus |
