Re: emerge fails on wheelgid

While trying to install the latest
prefix-portage-2.2.00.7245, it fails for
me on AIX 5.3 with:

make[2]: *** [install] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory
`/gsa/ausgsa-h2/00/mdmcmull/.overlay/var/tmp/portage-2.2.00.
7245/prefix-portage-2.2.00.7245/bin'
make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/gsa/ausgsa-h2/00/mdmcmull/.overlay/var/tmp/portage-2.2.00.
7245/prefix-portage-2.2.00.7245'
make: *** [install] Error 2

Any ideas?
