    Hello. I'm trying to make a new .ebuild file for a package that I 
like to use under Linux (DVD::Rip), and I'm testing it on my machine, 
and it's giving me an error that I don't understand. The dependencies 
work, and it seems to finish the compile part okay, but it fails when 
installing into the image directory.
    The error is this:

ACCESS DENIED  open_wr:   /usr/share/man/man1/splitpipe.1
Installing /usr/share/man/man1/splitpipe.1
ACCESS DENIED  utime:     /usr/share/man/man1/splitpipe.1
ACCESS DENIED  chmod:     /usr/share/man/man1/splitpipe.1

    ...and there's a summary containing basically those three lines, at 
the end; no new information there.

    What can be causing this error, and how can I fix it? I'm guessing 
that the package that I'm trying to install is doing something wrong, 
but I don't want to go mucking around in that until I'm sure that's the 
right thing to do.
    Any help would be appreciated, especially pointers to TFM, if there 
is one I don't know about, other than the HOWTO link on the Gentoo 
homepage. Thanks!

Doug
