Failed to emerge dev-libs/efl-1.17.0

Been having this problem a couple of days now. Not sure how to deal with it and can't find anything obvious in other threads but get a distinct impression that the sandbox isn't something I should muck about with unless I know what I am doing...which I don't.

File a bug, because it should not be trying to create user directories in /var/run (or /run) during the build. (Looks like it's the start of src_install, but possibly pre-hook.)

I have the same problem. Is there a bugzilla for it?

Thanks

I am still having the same problem. I can't seem to find a way to file a bug with the developer. Does anyone know how to contact them?

There was a comment in this thread which somehow disappeared. Strange enough - if you run emerge in different terminal implementation - it works! I'm using terminology and once I tried simple console (outside X) it was ok.

Many thanks for the idea.

Unfortunately it didn't work for me. I tried in a number of different terminals other than terminology and even tried from CLI outside of desktop environment and still generates same error. Any more ideas?

AH sorry about that Khay! I missed that you asked for that as well. Here it is...

cat /var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/efl-1.17.0/temp/environment |wgetpaste
Your paste can be seen here: https://bpaste.net/show/b62eb92d3b25

I will try the oneshot suggestion as well. Thanks as always for the assistance.

and the winner is

declare -x XDG_RUNTIME_DIR="/var/run/user/1000"

This appears also to be a problem with the enlightenment ebuild as well: I just ran into the same problem.

This would be a bug to file upstream, no?

Cheers,

The problem here is when efreetd is already running (such as when you're emerging from Terminology) everything emerges fine. But during emerge of any efl packages, efreetd gets spawned by the efl build tools such as edje_cc as uid=0, so defaults to using /run/user/0 as XDG_RUNTIME_DIR.

The simple solution I've used in my ebuilds, and added to my local enlightenment.eclass is to just makes sure XDG_RUNTIME_DIR="${T}".

This is probably Bug 567192

Build it from a root-login-shell should work.

I've encountered this just now when trying to emerge enlightenment, and there is a much easier solution. For me, I originally did su to root, and got the error. However, it's best to do:
