I have faced it and have installed over my gentoo system. Before
breaking it again, could anyone explain me why I am having this
warning?
Directory '/usr/portage/distfiles' owned by group 'portage', not
'paludisbuild', so cannot enable userpriv
Honestly, if that message doesn't make sense to you I'm not sure that
you're the target audience for Gentoo, let alone Paludis.
Based on the way Eduardo is phrasing things, I'm still willing to err on
the side of this being a language-barrier issue, or him not knowing how to
ask questions well (Be more explicit. Tell us what you tried/did, what you
expected, and what didn't meet those expectations.).
If the actual question is, "What is this 'userpriv' thing I'm getting a
warning about?"
Altered from /etc/make.conf.example:
# 'userpriv' allows [paludis] to drop root privileges while it is compiling,
# as a security measure. As a side effect this can remove
# sandbox access violations for users.
But Eduardo, if that wasn't your actual question, and you really
didn't/don't know about directory permissions, Ciaran's probably right
that you're not the target audience for Paludis.
Best,
Ben
