I have a second  question that's a follow up to that.

As explained, I moved /var/tmp/portage to a mounted drive and symlinked
it.  When that failed, I copied that directory back to /var/tmp/portage
and was able to emerge pavucontrol.

But now I observe something I don't understand.  The moved directory
tree has these contents:

drwxrwxr-x 3 portage portage 4096 Feb 25 07:20 app-text
drwxrwxr-x 4 portage portage 4096 Feb 25 07:20 dev-libs
drwxrwxr-x 3 portage portage 4096 Feb 25 05:04 dev-python
drwxrwxr-x 3 portage portage 4096 Feb 24 22:25 mail-client
drwxrwxr-x 3 portage portage 4096 Feb 25 07:20 media-libs
drwxrwxr-x 3 portage portage 4096 Feb 25 05:53 net-misc
drwxrwxr-x 3 portage portage 4096 Feb 25 04:50 www-client

But the copied-back directory tree only has these contents:

drwxrwxr-x 3 portage portage 4096 Feb 25 05:04 dev-python
drwxrwxr-x 3 portage portage 4096 Feb 24 22:25 mail-client
drwxrwxr-x 3 portage portage 4096 Feb 25 05:53 net-misc
drwxrwxr-x 3 portage portage 4096 Feb 25 04:50 www-client

Does portage *remove* some files in /var/tmp/portage but retain others?

This is important to me because I want to use this system as a local
binary server to other gentoo systems and because I want to retain the
build environments.
