Why does it do that? I did an 'emerge unmerge gimp' and then emerged gimp again to no avail... Please help?

Hi have got a temporary solution... gimp-1.2.3-r3 ebuild seem to be bugged... (I am being submitting it to the bugs.gentoo.org)

So for me I make
#emerge /usr/portage/media-gfx/gimp/gimp-1.2.3-r2.ebuild

and it works well...

I will try to make an update... after ... to gimp-1.2.3-r3.ebuild , I supposes the directory permission will not be replaced... :-)

Tell you if it's work,

The update doesn't work... same problem...

So I will wait the stable 1.4... and use gimp-1.2.3-r2.ebuild until :-)

a+

I hade the same problems with the r3 ebuilds; I think it may be something with install script changing permissions. What is worse is when I try to drop back to the r2 ebuild I get this error:

Ack, same here. New to Gentoo, clean install, I did 'emerge kde' last night then woke today to the following:

Did you 'emerge sync' before installing? The cvs changelog says some access violations were fixed for this ebuild on Nov 10. I haven't gotten a chance to try them out though.

I didn't emerge sync just before emerging kde, but I'm fairly sure I had since Nov 10th. Not to worry, having looked round it seems related to general kde problems rather than a specific Gimp problem, so I'll try emerging xfree 4.2.0 first then kde, as mentioned here.

It can wait, right now I'm busy with Iptables.... argh, so much to suss.

Love it.
