Paludis expects /usr/portage/distfiles to be owned by whichever group it uses for reduced privilege builds. Normally that's ok; however, as soon as you Portage as root, it'll automatically go and clobber a whole bunch of filesystem permissions without asking you. So your options are: * Fix it by hand and don't ever run Portage * Set Paludis to use the 'portage' user and group for reduced privilege operations. http://paludis.pioto.org/configuration/environment.html explains how. -- Ciaran McCreesh
