Most probably a package specific setup routine that makes a connection |
| 22 |
to the X server -- for whatever reason. The environment is probably |
| 23 |
modified at that point (e.g. by portages sandbox), so it doesn't work |
| 24 |
with a forwarded X connection. |

Maybe you can temporarily overcome that by using e.g. Xnest (since you |
| 27 |
already have X forwarding running) or Xvnc. |
