Stu, (apologies was reply, not reply to all)

(Being my first contribution here, dont hesitate to correct me)

But won't the sandbox still be in effect during src_install() especially
if userpriv and usersandbox features are used during emerge?. I would've
thought /var/cache/mmcache should be made ${D}/var/cache/mmcache etc.
insinto is fine as it respects the image root, but the mkdir will be
trying to create /var/cache/mmcache on your _live_ filesystem, not the
sandboxed image.

As I said, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Regards, Mike.
