Attempting to emerge dev-util/boost-build fails at unpacking with:

Code:
Cannot change ownership to uid 501, gid 0: Invalid argument


I've verified that I'm running as root:

Code:
root@computer ~ # echo $EUID
0
root@computer ~ # echo $UID
0
root@computer ~ # whoami
root


I've found a solution online, that suggests passing these flags:

Code:
--owner root --group root --no-same-owner


I can't pass tar flags directly to emerge.
Is anyone aware of an emerge equivalent?

Perhaps you should debug why the ownership cannot be changed. Many other users built that package successfully. What is the output of emerge --info ; mount?

Ah, so you are running prefix-portage, in particular with non-root privileges. Then it is clear that portage cannot change owner.
I would guess this is a bug since the ebuild would need to handle prefix separately.
Unless somebody else here proves me wrong, I suggest to report it to bugzilla.

I replicated the issue while attempting a manual installation.
This was resolved by running

Quote:
tar -zxvf ./boost_1_53_0.tar.gz --no-same-owner


I've never had this issue with tar before, so I'm guessing it has something to do with the boost tar file itself.

Posting a bug report to the boost team.
