Hi Aron,
while talking to daniel on irc otday and trying to solve and ebuild error we found out the following :
as per the new portage we have expan_alias on according to daniel. now if some good sysad has aliases rm=rm -i then the ebuild goes for a toss. can this be fixed at the earliest.
temporary solution was to remove that alias from the /etc/profile and everything went on smooth after that.
Best Regards,
pm

This is interesting. We should probably do "unalias -a" around the same
time we do "shopt -s expand_aliases" in ebuild.sh.
If somebody else wants to make this change, I'd appreciate it. My
sister is getting married on Saturday, so I'll be pretty busy over the
next couple of days.

OK, I think we should do the following. First, we try to use the --noprofile
option so that ebuild.sh does not auto-source /etc/profile. Will this work:
#!/bin/bash --noprofile
Then, I modify ebuild.sh to source *profile.env* rather than /etc/profile
directly, and use ROOTPATH as PATH. That should fix it without a messy
unalias. And then we're also protecting ourselves from further pollution from
/etc/profile.
I think this'll work; do you?
