[»] Emerde in SUSE.
by mnajem - Sep 9th 2004 02:19:15

hi, I tested on SUSE 9.1 Personal(upgrade to Pro by HTTP upgrade).

However I met this problem. It being told that Emerde works well on other RPM based Redhat and Mandrake,so I took risk to try on my SUSE. What's going on actually? SUSE use different style of grouping,which is username is not equal to group number, UID!=GID.

How to solve this matter?

portage: 'portage' user or group missing. Please update baselayout
and merge portage user(250) and group(250) into your passwd
and group files. Non-root compilation is disabled until then.
Also note that non-root/wheel users will need to be added to
the portage group to do portage commands.

For the defaults, line 1 goes into passwd, and 2 into group.
portage:x:250:250:portage:/var/tmp/portage:/bin/false
portage::250:portage

I am sorry to tell you that 'merde' in French means
'shit'

For every french people, your project name sounds
like eshit, which is rather unfortunate.
