With what USE flags do you try to emerge asymptote? Have you tried -j1 ?
Try "USE=-boehm-gc" this fixed the problem of a hanging /usr/bin/asy (both asymptote-1.65 and 1.66) for me. I have "dev-libs/boehm-gc-7.0 +threads".
I think this is not a good solution. Without garbage collection, you will be able to run only very short and trivial examples (or you should have a lot of memory). Some time ago, a user with a low-memory computer could not emerge asymptote with -boehm-gc +doc because of the lack of memory. I think something is wrong with emake -j<n> where n>1 here. This is often the case. I have a single-core processor, and cannot chech this. I'd recommend to try to emerge asymptote with -j1. It works for me. Or just change the line emake asymptote.pdf to emake -j1 asymptote.pdf If this will fix your problem, I'll commit this change.
Please try asymptote-1.67. I've added -j1 to emake asymptote.pdf. Please check if this fixes your problem.
Please check if -j1 which I included in the recent versions of the ebuild (1.67, 1.68) fixes your problem (I cannot check this because I don't see this problem).
(In reply to comment #6) > Please check if -j1 which I included in the recent versions of the ebuild > (1.67, 1.68) fixes your problem (I cannot check this because I don't see this > problem). > Confirm this. 1.67 builds without any problem.
OK, so -j1 has fixed this. Closing.
