I am emerging KDE and it stopped on kdenetwork, when I kicked off an emerge just for this package I get this sort of output (sorry the lines are truncated - PuTTY did this when I increased the scrollback buffer)

Has anyone else seen this before? What is happening, why can't it create the /root/.kde/share/config/ directory? The emerge finished okay with no errors.
(NOTE: I have changed the portage tmp dir to /home/pkgmgr/tmp because it needs the space of the 2nd HDD to compile, and I found that portage failed if I just symlinked /home/pkgmgr/tmp/portage -> /var/tmp/portage.. again with permission denied for creating directories - may be a clue?)
What problems might this cause me, can I just create this directory myself and have everything work okay?
I am really puzzled by it because I am logged in as root and emerge is running as root then.. root is currently the ony real user on the system. 
Help.. needed.. please..

I had this happen to me, it seemed to keep going round in a loop trying to create the dir.
It can't create /root/.kde/share/config because /root/.kde doesn't exist
I did a 'mkdir /root/.kde/; mkdir /root/.kde/share' on another console whilst it was stuck in this loop and it sorted it out.. |

Maybe the Makefiles should be trying mkdir -p?
Funny, I thought that they did. Oh well.

Thanks for the replies,
I don't think this is the problem though. I created the directories /root/.kde & /root/.kde/share and emerged kdenetwork again.
| Code: |
checking for kde-config... /usr/kde/3/bin/kde-config
checking for meinproc... /usr/kde/3/bin/meinproc
trying to create local folder: Permission denied
failed to create /root/.kde/share/config/
trying to create local folder: Permission denied
failed to create /root/.kde/share/config/
trying to create local folder: Permission denied

checking for libtiff tiff... yes
checking for linux/tcp.h... yes

So it still couldn't create the config directory.. I just created it manually and have let the emerge continue (takes about 2 hours to compile).

Almost like you're doing the emerge as user instead of root! Which I know you probably aren't...
Reboot and retry..

| i did a kde3 emerge as root and saw that permission denied when trying to create folder schroll by too...but even though it looks scary it is all working ok for me....so i think you should go on and configure kdm adn boot kde ...it will probably be fine...asuming you were root when you ran the emerge |
