The problem is it that tinderbox and pointyhat does not check for the conte= nt of /root neither the one of /var. (poudriere does with -t). Concerning the .local fs violation in particular, most of the time a simple MAKE_ENV+=3D XDG_CONFIG_HOME=3D/dev/null will fix it, (some kde ports are already fixed for that.) Another FS violation like this one is know to be done by the gstreamer port= s, well actually everything using gobject introspection, another macro has to = be set, gnome@ is already aware of it, I do hope a fix will be committed soon. regards, Bapt --69pVuxX8awAiJ7fD Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAlHpap8ACgkQ8kTtMUmk6ExuWQCcDdHbdr5kebEkovC9h1lcSFtD txYAnjO3qWYkwfpEa8503Fv+evT7+YdV =kwV+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --69pVuxX8awAiJ7fD--
