Sometime in the past the location of the herds.xml file got changed. app-portage/herdstat-1.1.91 has been fixed to use the new location, but it is marked unstable. The older versions of herdstat don't use the correct location and thus don't work at all. Possible solutions: stabilize app-portage/herdstat-1.1.91-r1 (and thus also dev-cpp/libherdstat-0.2.0), or backport the location change for herdstat-1.1.1_p7. My vote is for the stabilization.
(In reply to comment #0) > Possible solutions: stabilize app-portage/herdstat-1.1.91-r1 (and thus also > dev-cpp/libherdstat-0.2.0) Noooo!!! It's totally unusable. See Bug 121662. Stick this into /etc/herdstatrc or ~/.herdstatrc <snip> herdsxml=/usr/portage/metadata/herds.xml </snip> (or whatever other location that fits your needs).
Ok, if herdstat-1.1.91 isn't ready then I think the location patch should be backported to herdstat-1.1.1_p7, so that things work out of the box. If that's just not possible then even adding the snippet that jakub mentions could be included in the ebuild.
Please do

====amd64==== All deps merge. herdstat compiles fine, installs fine, merges fine. it would be nice to make a test suite based off of the examples in the examples.txt.bz2 file.
