+Finally, we need to map the account(s) you use to manage your system (those
+that need access to Portage) to the <c>staff_u</c> SELinux user. By default,
+users are mapped to the <c>user_u</c> SELinux user who doesn't have the
+appropriate rights (nor access to the appropriate roles) to manage a system.
+Accounts that are mapped to <c>staff_u</c> can, but might need to switch roles

+privileges.

+If you later log on as <e>john</e> and want to manage your system, you will
