Note that gentoo is not supported by openpkg as far as I know,
thus we are probably battling general openpkg problems.
You might want to check with openpkg, if they know about specific
problems with gento.
Also if we go into the details, we probably should do this on kolab-devel@
not on kolab-users at .

Kolab.pm did getpwnam() to retrieve the home directory of kolab.
This usually is "/kolab". For some reason this failed and is the cause
of other problems. Check your /etc/passwd if the kolab user is there and
has the right home directory.
If it isn't there, openpkg failed to create it properly.
