When trying to update my system today, pango was pulled in but it failed with the following error : /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe -fweb -ftracer -frename-registers -Wall -Wl,-O1 -o libpangocairo-1.0.la -rpath /usr/lib64 -version-info 1001:0:1001 -export-symbols-regex "^pango_.*" pangocairo-font.lo pangocairo-fontmap.lo pangocairo-render.lo pangocairo-fcfont.lo pangocairo-fcfontmap.lo libpango-1.0.la -lcairo -lgobject-2.0 -lgmodule-2.0 -ldl -lglib-2.0 libpangoft2-1.0.la -lfontconfig -lfreetype -lz grep: /var/tmp/portage/expat-1.95.8/image/usr/lib64/libexpat.la: No such file or directory /bin/sed: can't read /var/tmp/portage/expat-1.95.8/image/usr/lib64/libexpat.la: No such file or directory libtool: link: `/var/tmp/portage/expat-1.95.8/image/usr/lib64/libexpat.la' is not a valid libtool archive make[4]: *** [libpangocairo-1.0.la] Erreur 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/pango-1.10.1/work/pango-1.10.1/pango' make[3]: *** [all-recursive] Erreur 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/pango-1.10.1/work/pango-1.10.1/pango' make[2]: *** [all] Erreur 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/pango-1.10.1/work/pango-1.10.1/pango' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Erreur 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/pango-1.10.1/work/pango-1.10.1' make: *** [all] Erreur 2 !!!

I don't know what it tries to mess up with expat in /var/tmp/portage, but it makes it fail... Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Update pango to 1.10.1 2. 3.

Looks like expat was incorrectly installed, and a .la file is referencing it's build directory rather than it's install directory. Try this: find /usr -name "*.la" -exec grep -H portage {} \; This should print all .la files referencing /var/tmp/portage. (I found cracklib when I ran that command) Re-emerge the broken package.
Arf, indeed it found cairo to point to /var/tmp/portage/expat-1.95.8... Thanks for the tip and sorry for the buzz !
resolved
