|
|
I followed the directions in the FAQ to install portage on a different distro (evilentity) but I can't emerge anything. This is what I get
,--==(02:26am)==--==(root@ce1)==--
'--==(/home/longbody)==-->emerge sync
portage: 'portage' user or group missing. Please update baselayout
and merge portage user(250) and group(250) into your passwd
and group files. Non-root compilation is disabled until then.
For the defaults, line 1 goes into passwd, and 2 into group.
portage:x:250:250:portage:/var/tmp/portage:/bin/false
portage::250:portage
any idea what to do? |

Did you add a "portage" user and "portage" group like the error message suggests? |
