According to 
http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/17778?string=texlive&project=1&search_name=&type[0]=&sev[0]=&pri[0]=&due[0]=&reported[0]=&cat[0]=&status[0]=open&percent[0]=&opened=&dev=&closed=&duedatefrom=&duedateto=&changedfrom=&changedto=&openedfrom=&openedto=&closedfrom=&closedto=

the problem is in buggy texlive version. However with the current git/svn version it works OK.

texlive-2009 in gentoo needs to be updated therefore

Correct the summary with the package name that owns context
subpackage.

ping?

[Comment 4 Andreas K. Hüttel 2010-10-01 07:31:44 UTC]

Question- is this a regression compared to texlive 2008?

[Comment 5 Lubos Kolouch 2010-10-01 07:40:05 UTC]

Yes, with 2008 it worked OK.

It is a known bug of 2009, for example with user-installed latest context-minimals it is OK

[Comment 6 [e-mail] 2010-10-12 07:35:48 UTC]

So the solution for this bug would be installing a newer version of texlive.

[Comment 7 Lubos Kolouch 2010-10-12 07:40:13 UTC]

Exactly, however there is no ebuild for it available in the portage.

[Comment 8 [e-mail] 2010-10-12 07:44:30 UTC]

There is bug #339098. If this is not fixed upstream, I think that we should ignore this when texlive 2010 hits portage (not before, obviously)

[Comment 9 Lubos Kolouch 2010-10-12 07:47:56 UTC]

I think this bug will be fixed when 2010 hits portage if that's what you mean

[Comment 10 Alexis Ballier 2010-10-30 17:27:37 UTC]

should be fixed with texlive 2010 which will be unmasked soon
