Hi, |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
May be because this directory is meant to be used by portage only. |
| 25 |
IMHO that is so because of FEATURES="... userpriv ..." (please check the syntax). |
| 26 |
Same must be valid for /usr/portage/distfiles (FAETURES= " ... parallel-fetch userpriv usersandbox...") |
| 27 |
Why you need user access to this work-dir. |
