Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
emerge fbset
Actual Results:  
emerge fails


emerge bison
emerge flex
after this emerge fbset works

maybe interesting information: this happened on a fresh install. i emerged only a few small programs

Thanks, fixed.

This isn't fixed. While bison is a dependency, you also need flex; the fix instructions in the previous comment actually emerge flex so it just skirted the lack of dependency;

make
armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi-gcc -Wall -O2 -pipe -march=armv7-a -mfpu=vfpv3-d16 -mfloat-abi=hard -I. -O2 -pipe -march=armv7-a -mfpu=vfpv3-d16 -mfloat-abi=hard   -c -o fbset.o fbset.c
bison -d modes.y
armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi-gcc -Wall -O2 -pipe -march=armv7-a -mfpu=vfpv3-d16 -mfloat-abi=hard -I. -O2 -pipe -march=armv7-a -mfpu=vfpv3-d16 -mfloat-abi=hard   -c -o modes.tab.o modes.tab.c
flex modes.l
make: flex: Command not found
make: *** [lex.yy.c] Error 127
emake failed

This should have gone to new bug, but no worries.
