Description Helmut Jarausch 2008-04-24 07:37:47 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
When a package is installed on a Gentoo system, it all happens in a 
'sandbox'. Access to a directories/files outside of this sandbox
results in an 'access violation' error.


During build, executing
tools/.libs/lt-introspect
it tries to 
mkdir /root/.gegl-0.0
which fails.

Can this be avoided?

(I couldn't try gegl-0.0.20 since this isn't on ftp.gimp.org

Many thanks for your help.

Does this happen every time?

The downstream bug report, including a workaround (setting the GEGL_SWAP variable):

Comment 2 Kevin Cozens 2009-01-01 01:24:23 UTC 
Could someone using Gentoo test the latest 0.0.22 release of GEGL and report back as to whether the sandbox violation still exists?
Comment 3 quazgar 2009-01-04 17:28:48 UTC 
Seems to work fine without the prior workaround for me, this bug probably can be closed as fixed.

You might also want to have a look at the following configure patch:
gegl-20-configure-ac.patch from http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=240776
It adds some new dependency configure flags (instead of automagically using detected libraries).
