I've been updating my system during last few days and just noted that now yt-dlp fails to download anything from YT. it doesn't seem to be anything systemic as Odysee DL works.
It fails with:

My Gentoo-installation uses btrfs and has /var as its own subvolume. Upgrading @ world used to work like a charm, but one day, something changed. When I update my system now, portage breaks after a while (especially when compiling large packages). I found out that /var/cache/ and /var/tmp/ have sizes of several GB's after each failed update.
Should I enlarge the size of the /var-subvolume so that I can upgrade again?

Hello.
After migrating from profile 17.1 to 23.0 my /etc/motd stopped being displayed on login with ssh.
File is still there and it contains what I need, but it just won't be displayed anymore.
I could add something in `/etc/profile.d` to get it back, but I am curious what happened that it stopped displaying anymore. There are no obvious changes in /etc regarding motd file. Simple `grep motd -R /etc` shows same entries for box which operates still on 17.1 profile as the migrated one.
I know this is silly thing, but I really like to know what's going on under the hood and maybe somebody could ..read more

New to Gentoo and as an arch user, it looks intimidating. I have older hardware so I know a local compile job would help - especially when getting any sort of VA hardware acceleration with an R300-Mesa driver’d Radeon RV380.
On arch I have to build Mesa. Same on 32-bit Intel i915g Mesa driver’d laptops. So archlinux32 has been interesting.
Gentoo tho, still seems like a challenge. Different workflow for install I guess. Portage seems fun enough. Much more customized per program than pacman’s makepkg.conf
But then I see NixOS and it seems like that is… enticing albeit time-consuming….

Hi, I use openvpn on gentoo for quite some while and want to change my config to use ipv6 only instead of ipv4 only.
So I changed the protocol to udp6, server to server-ipv6 with a free ip range, push route-ipv6 with that range but when the client (which I also changed to udp6) tries to connect (UDPv6 WRITE in its log), the server log prints
```
Connection Attempt read UDPv6 [EACCES]: Permission denied (fd=5,code=13)
```
I checked what that fd 5 is in /proc and found out it is the UDPv6 socket. How can a program not write its own socket? I am clueless what to do about it and did not find any ..read more
