It looks like on my setup pango ebuild fails due to its inability to fetch packages: cronos ~ # emerge x11-libs/pango Calculating dependencies... done! >>> Emerging (1 of 1) x11-libs/pango-1.10.3 to / >>> checking ebuild checksums ;-) >>> checking auxfile checksums ;-) >>> checking miscfile checksums ;-) >>> Unpacking source... !!! ERROR: x11-libs/pango-1.10.3 failed.

Nothing passed to the 'unpack' command !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. There's no SRC_URI in the ebuild so I guess it gets packages from somewhere else (eclass maybe?).

It works fine for me. SRC you get from inherit gnome2 which get it from gnome.org.eclass. So check if your ebuild inherit gnome2, gnome2.eclass inherit gnome.org and gnome.org.eclass has defined SRC_URI.
My fault. I had an overlay with some eclasses in it.
