interresting aproach.
this could work. however, i can see a few limitations:
- you must be root.
- this is specific to linux as of today.
- if you want to hide the mechanism, i don't see how without doing the same
portage modifications as in my solution.
but this is maybe worth investigating.

Hi all,
Currently there is an old known

ea!
It is very helpful for Gentoo Prefix/libc,
where we maintain a set of nss databases
(passwd, group, shadow, etc.)
inside a
directory prefix.

package in a folder: user/groups are created in the host filesystem, not the
target root filesystem.
So I've pushed some modifications to the upstream shadow repo.
Basically, I've added a --prefix option to
;)
thank you

Hi,
I'm still searching for the reason why I'm not seeing my eclass
modifications... no luck so far.
What can I do to debug portage's behavior?
Thank you

Hi all,
I'm currently developping a patch for user.eclass, but I'm
