User is in group portage | Quote: | $ groups
wheel uucp audio cdrom dialout video games cdrw usb users portage scanner charles17 plugdev |
And directories are like | Quote: | $ ls -al /usr/portage/app-accessibility/at-spi2-atk/

-rw-r--r-- 1 portage portage 174 Oct 4 2013 metadata.xml |
Problem seems to be that sub directories in /usr/portage/ have chmod 755.
Is this by design? I can't remember how long it's been this way.

Juding on your output the directory belongs to the group portage.
Your user do not have writing rights for e.g.
rsync: mkstemp "/usr/portage/app-accessibility/at-spi2-atk/.ChangeLog.q9pfNf"
which means you do not belong to the portage group, or the portage group do not have the permissions to write there.
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=37913
there is also eixrc and other configs.
Off topic: I personally use su and get permissions to run the portage from a shell in X |

That's exactly what I understand from | Quote: | | -rw-r--r-- 1 portage portage |
Portage group has only read permission. But shouldn't also the group have write permission?
What is your permissions in /usr/portage/*/ ?
Seems to support my idea that emerge --sync should be possible for any user in portage group. |

charles ... generally, yes, and +x as you need +r-x for accessing the directory. I'm not sure how you came by the above as the default is:
| Code: | # ls -ld ~portdir
drwxrwxr-x 113 portage portage 4096 2015-01-31 12:48 /var/pkg/gentoo/ |
| charles17 wrote: | | What is your permissions in /usr/portage/*/ ? |
drwxr-xr-x portage portage, and -rw-r--r-- portage portage for files.

Guess it cannot be sanitized this by simply doing chmod g+w /var/db/* ? |

charles ... '~portdir' is a 'hashed directory', its a zsh thing, so unless you're running zsh and created a hashed dir you won't have it.
Though I often do my examples in bash syntax so that confusions like the above don't happen, its not something I'm happy about it, as I'm basically validating the use of something which I wouldn't advocate. Anyhow, I'd assumed that you would take '~portdir' to mean PORTDIR ... and so translate this to whatever path you happen to have.
| charles17 wrote: | | Also I do not have /var/pkg/gentoo/. |
Yes, that wasn't a mistake on my part ... /var/pkg is the top level directory where I store all repos ... and 'gentoo' is the 'gentoo repo' (mistakenly called 'portage'). Yours is '/usr/portage' ... as you showed in the post I was replying to. I'd assumed you'd see I was talking about the same directory ... sorry.
| charles17 wrote: | | Guess it cannot be sanitized this by simply doing chmod g+w /var/db/* ? |
Firstly, /var/db serves another purpose, secondly, that will also effect files similarly to directories.
I would use zsh's "glob qualifiers" and match my targets ... but as your using bash find will have to suffice.
| Code: | # chmod ug+rwx,o+rx /usr/portage
# find /usr/portage -type f -exec chmod u+rw,g+r,o+r "{}" \;
# find /usr/portage -type d -exec chmod u+rwx,go+rx "{}" \; |

chown and chmod (at least those from GNU) have an -R switch:
| Code: | chown -R portage:portage /usr/portage
chmod -R ug+w,a+rX /usr/portage
chmod g+s /usr/portage |
(Putting the sgid bit seems to be the right thing here and IIRC was default on my stage3). |

mv ... yes, I'd forgotten about +X ... as I said I generally use glob qualifiers and '**' glob rather than -R.

hmmm ... no sgid here, but agreed its probably a good idea.

Thanks khayyam and mv for your help. But something's still weird. I am now receiving errors like | Quote: | receiving incremental file list

And, these errors now are even when running su -c "emerge --sync".

Would I need to set the same permissions here as done for /usr/portage ? |

Obviously you need to replace /var/pkg/gentoo with /usr/portage.

Ok, I'll try not getting confused by your paths.

charles ... except for /usr/portage/ itself the above seems to be consistant with what I provided ... though you only showed directories and not files ...
| Code: | | # chmod g+w /usr/portage |
I'm not sure who's advice you followed, but as I don't see g+s I'll assume mine. Just to clarify, 'su -c emerge --sync' didn't work, but now does?

Is there a reason why your not using sudo?

Guess it*s a bad idea trying to "emerge --sync" without su. After "chmod g+w /usr/portage" everything in /usr/portage/ has 775. But then doing "emerge --sync" (without su) results in errors like | Quote: | | rsync: failed to set permissions on "/usr/portage/app-text/vilistextum": Operation not permitted (1) |
Then running | Quote: | | $ su -c "emerge --sync" |
returns all previously done chmod to 755. Ok for me.
Thanks again for your attention. |

Portage by default (or if some FEATURE is set?) drops permissions to user "portage" when syncing - this is not possible if portage is not called as root. In this sense, syncing as "root" can be saver than syncing as a user. |
