[gentoo-user] Can't paste from selection in gtk-3 apps

Hello, So looking at /etc/portage/repos.conf, it seems root.root owns these files; shouldn't it be portage.portage? and /usr/portage That got me thinking. Everywhere that portage operates or owns things, should the ownership not be portage.portage and what would the typical permissions be? Is
