Apologies if this isn't enough info, but when I tried emerging hermes (for Gnome), I get this error: #emerge --debug gnome Calculating dependencies / /usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: /usr/portage/media-libs/hermes/hermes-1.3.2-r2.ebuild: line 56: unexpected EOF while looking for matching ``' /usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: /usr/portage/media-libs/hermes/hermes-1.3.2-r2.ebuild: line 57: syntax error: unexpected end of file !!!

Check for syntax error or corruption in the ebuild. (--debug) My platform is Gentoo 1.4rc3 PPC, latest ppc-sources and up-to-date Portage tree. I hope this helps!
