The RPM for ati-drivers-8.18.6 contains 7 binary files, but only 5 of these files are installed by the emerges of ati-drivers and ati-drivers-extra. The files present within the RPM at /usr/X11R6/bin are: aticonfig fgl_glxgears fglrx_pplay fglrx_xgamma fglrxconfig fglrxinfo fireglcontrolpanel Three of these binaries are installed to /opt/ati/bin by the ati-drivers ebuild: fglrx_xgamma fglrxconfig fglrxinfo Two are installed to /opt/ati/bin by ati-drivers-extra: fglrxgears fireglcontrolpanel (as 'fireglcontrol') aticonfig and fglrx_pplay are not installed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge ati-drivers-8.18.6 and ati-drivers-extra-8.18.6. 2. attempt to run or locate aticonfig and fglrx_pplay Actual Results: The applications were not found on the system. Expected Results: Installed all binaries present in the RPM to the system. The ati-drivers ebuild contains these lines: rm -rf ${WORKDIR}/usr/X11R6/bin/{fgl_glxgears,fireglcontrolpanel} rm -rf ${WORKDIR}/usr/X11R6/bin/{aticonfig,fglrx_pplay} and ati-drivers-extra contains the installation for fgl_glxgears and fireglcontrol, but not for aticonfig and fglrx_pplay. I don't honestly know what fglrx_pplay does, but I have heard that aticonfig is an improvement on fglrxconfig and I would like to attempt to use it to generate an xorg.conf that I might have some assurance is correctly set with ATI-specific options without breaking the current functionality of other components of the X server. I'd prefer not to use the ATI script directly (which I presume would correctly install these components), as I want Portage to know about this installation. Is there some reason that these components should explicitly not be installed under Gentoo?

Those components aren't working properly yet. I'll check if there is a solution to the issue later.
