  • getting binary packages started to fail

    I'm following the new instructions to get binary packages (n86 (x86, 64-
    bit)) which mostly worked yesterday but today (despite nothing changed)
    failed. I do the following root command and get output like the
    following.

    emerge --ask --verbose --update --deep --changed-use --getbinpkg
    @world

    gpg: WARNING: unsafe ownership on homedir '/etc/portage/gnupg'
    [...]
    gpg: Fatal: can't open '/etc/portage/gnupg/trustdb.gpg': Permission
    denied
    !!! Invalid binary package: '<package>', GPG verify failed
    >>> Failed to emerge

    I think you can rename the gnupg directory (so you have a copy if you
    need to revert back to it), portage should fetch new keys when you fetch binary package or you can manually run getuto as root.
