I've made fixes to the ebuild which should hopefully sort this. Can you emerge
sync, re-merge and try again please?

Let me know if it works.

Thanks for the report :)

I've got the same problem with apachetop 0.12

You have to start famd before using apachetop:

/etc/init.d/famd start

Probably a wrapper script that sets up famd (if it hasn't been started before) before running apachetop would be fine. 

# emerge --info

Thats not something Gentoo should provide. If you use apachetop a lot, add fam
to your runlevel, otherwise just remember to start it first.
