[gentoo-user] distfiles on samba and 2.6.18

Since upgrading to the 2.6.18 kernel I get this on my client machine
when trying to emerge. I have distfiles mapped to a server samba share
and this works if I boot back up into 2.6.17. Does anyone have any ideas
how to stop this happening?

Look at /etc/make.conf.example:

First try cleaning the locks using
/usr/lib/portage/bin/clean_locks
If that doesn't work, you have more options:
- specify a PORTAGE_TMPFS (albeit I'm not sure if this applies for
  distfiles locks, too),
- remove "distlocks" FEATURE.

Cleaning the locks had no effect. Neither did setting PORTAGE_TMPFS. I
had to remove distlocks which also disabled parallel-fetching. I don't
understand why this only happens with 2.6.18 and it seems like a bug,
but at least I can continue to use my samba share distfiles now.

Cheers,
Dave.
