Not having mktemp breaks eselect-compiler, and eselect-compiler does NOT depend on mktemp. Additionally, if you install eselect-compiler before mktemp, you can't install mktemp! # FEATURES=-confcache emerge mktemp Calculating dependencies... done! >>> Emerging (1 of 1) sys-apps/mktemp-1.5 to / >>> Creating Manifest for /usr/gentoo-cvs/gentoo-x86/sys-apps/mktemp >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking mktemp-1.5.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/mktemp-1.5/work * Applying mktemp-1.5-build.patch ...

This must've been missed by vapier when he broke off the mktemp package...
Created attachment 94860 [details, diff] Remove use of mktemp from eselect module Jeremy, attached patch uses a HERE doc to eliminate the use of temporary files. This means mktemp is no longer required, and it should be a little faster as well since it avoids filesystem access.
