Comment 2 Luca Barbato gentoo-dev 2003-03-30 15:39:16 UTC 
question, do you have debianutils installed?

did you emerge system?
Comment 3 Lars Weiler (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-03-30 16:46:05 UTC 
He manually deinstalled debianutils.  After reemerging, the game installed without problem.

Nevertheless I'm wondering, why the eutils.eclass doesn't depend on debianutils (because it provides mktemp)?
