|
|
Sometime between May 22nd and May 30 permissions on /var/lib/portage changed from
drwxr-sr-x 2 root portage 168 May 22 10:33 portage
to
drwxrws--- 2 root portage 200 May 30 18:35 portage
This broke much of the use of emerge as ordinary user. F or example emerge --search does not work for normal user anymore.
I hope it wasn't intended ? |

just a quick check on my system, emerge --search works perfectly fine for me as a regular user (just used it a couple times earlier today, so i know it works):
Code: | drwxr-sr-x 2 root portage 4096 Jun 1 16:06 portage |
I haven't used eix in over 8 years now, last time I used that I had to run an additional command just to update it's database after I ran emerge --sync. Things has most likely changed significantly since then. |
