Subject: [gentoo-soc] GSoC patch for DragonFlyBSD porting

1 Hi all,
2
3 Here is a patch for Gentoo GSoC application.
4
5 When I was running Portage test (portage/pym/portage/tests/runTests) from
6 git HEAD[1] on DragonFlyBSD, I found mkdir('/') returns EPERM which
7 portage would not expect to get.This caused ensure_dir('/') to be failed,
8 so that one of the tests finished with a error. (I believe ensure_dir('/')
9 should not be failed in
10 any case ;-) )
11
12 This patch adds a workaround for this case. I've confirmed the patched
13 portage's "runTests" work well (give OK for all the tests) on Gentoo/Linux
14 (~amd64), Gentoo/FreeBSD 8.0, and DragonFlyBSD 2.4.1.

16 # I wonder if this SCM and repository is suited for the BSD Porting
17 # project[2].
