Cannot emerge ADOM

Hi all. Check it out:

Code: Select all

[root@blueshroom:/home/max]# emerge adom
Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 1) games-roguelike/adom-1.1.1-r1 to /
>>> md5 src_uri ;-) adom-111-elf.tar.gz
 * Adding user 'games-ded' to your system ...
 *  - Userid: 36
 *  - Shell: /bin/bash
 *  - Home: /usr/games
 * You must add games to the system first

!!! ERROR: games-roguelike/adom-1.1.1-r1 failed.
!!! Function enewuser, Line 575, Exitcode 0
!!! games is not a valid GID

Yet:

Code: Select all

[root@blueshroom:/home/max]# grep games /etc/group /etc/passwd
/etc/group:games:x:35:
/etc/group:users:x:100:games,max
/etc/passwd:games:x:35:35:games:/usr/games:/bin/false
Why does portage hate me? :cry:

Have you tried creating a /usr/games directory?
-It's gonna take a lot of fireworks to clean this place up.

Same problem here /usr/games exists.

I can emerge frozen-bubble but no other game :(

A emerge sync solved the problem :D
