Libmemcached seems to need perl-PodParser: checking for podchecker... no configure: error: "Could not find podchecker anywhere in path" !!! Please attach the following file when seeking support: !!! /var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/libmemcached-0.39/work/libmemcached-0.39/config.log * ERROR: dev-libs/libmemcached-0.39 failed: * econf failed * * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 54: Called src_configure * environment, line 2296: Called econf '--without-debug' '--disable-hsieh_hash' * ebuild.sh, line 544: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * die "econf failed" * * If you need support, post the output of 'emerge --info =dev-libs/libmemcached-0.39', * the complete build log and the output of 'emerge -pqv =dev-libs/libmemcached-0.39'. * The complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/libmemcached-0.39/temp/build.log'. * The ebuild environment file is located at '/var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/libmemcached-0.39/temp/environment'. * S: '/var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/libmemcached-0.39/work/libmemcached-0.39' I'd post more info but I'm pretty sure It's not needed. Please let me know otherwise
podchecker is installed by dev-lang/perl too. (dev-libs/libmemcached DEPENDs on net-misc/memcached which RDEPENDs on dev-lang/perl, so dev-lang/perl is installed at buildtime.) Why doesn't it work? `ls -l /usr/bin/podchecker*` ?

It wasn't installed on the setup I work on, and emerging world with deps (-ND) didn't want to throw it in – so I assumed podparser wasn't pulled by anything. My bad. Feel free to close unless I actually made some sense :-)
Robin already added virtual/perl-PodParser to DEPEND. Which is fine and the reason why i stumbled over this bugreport. I am just trying to understand what happened. Is your system old (did you upgrade from perl-5.8.8-r7 to -r8? is -r8 still installed?) or a fresh installation? Do you use binary packages? Or did you interrupt emerge perl ;) ? Anyway, I don't think we'll find out what happened and this bug can be closed.
Closing
