This seems like the result of a hasty bugfix to me: https://bugs.gentoo.org/23627 http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/eclass/eutils.eclass?r1=1.36&r2=1.37 Wrong group ownership shouldn't matter much, since ebuilds should probably explicitly set home directory ownership / permissions with fowners / fperms anyway (in src_install()). However, that doesn't work due to: https://bugs.gentoo.org/396153 Having a switch for enewuser to skip creating home directory would solve the issue for majority of usecases, but a request I opened was resolved as a duplicate of the bug above (which I don't expect to be resolved anytime soon): https://bugs.gentoo.org/395961 -- Maxim Kammerer Liberté Linux: http://dee.su/liberte
