hi, i get the following error:

tar: db-4.2.52.NC/build_unix: Cannot change ownership to uid 107281, gid 260: Invalid argument
tar: db-4.2.52.NC/btree: Cannot change ownership to uid 107281, gid 260: Invalid argument
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
dmake: Error code 2, while making './unxlngi4.pro/misc/build/so_unpacked_so_berkeleydb'
---* TG_SLO.MK *---

tracked the error down to tar... but can anyone help

unclefu,

Its unlikely you have a user with ID 107281 or a group with ID 260 on your system, Tar is fine.
This looks like a beta of OO.o 2 ?

unclefu,

Get the tarball and unpack it by hand. Fix the user and group IDs on those files then tar it back up and put it back in /usr/portage/distfiles.

If emerge can detect the changes because of the md5sum, you will need to put the new md5sum in the manifest.

wow a lot of work and you thing this will work?

because it is not when untaring the first tar bal but anywhere in the berkley db....

unclefu,

I've not tested it, I'll see if I can recreate it - watch this space.

Hmm. I manually untarred the OOo_1.1.4_source.tar.gz in my users home directory with no problems.
The file size is 219743530

I cannot re-create the problem

yeah i did untar too...

the problem is in the db-4 tar-bal of berkley db

i did an
tar --no-same-owner
chown root:root:
tar -zcvf

after that a tar -zcvf of the big tar ball
and an ebuild openoffice-1.4.1-r1 digest

now i got no error on berkley db well see if there are further errors.
