1 Hi,
2 I wonder what I am doing wrong.
3 For several packages, e.g. x11-terms/kitty-0.12.1
4 I get access violations like
5
6 * ACCESS DENIED: mkdir: /root/.config/kitty
7
8 The cause of this is clear: emerge is running as user/group 'portage'
9 but
10 ls -ld /root/.config
11 gives
12 drwx------ 15 root portage 4096 Sep 19 14:20 /root/.config
13
14 One could change the permission of this folder, but there are
15 several applications which use this folder.
16
17 What am I missing?
18
19 Many thanks for a hint,
20 Helmut
