When attempting to emerge sci-astronomy/ds9, the emerge fails because somewhere in the source makefiles, it assumes a default compiler name of 'gcc34' (and g++34). A simple patch to the ds9-4.13.ebuild file is attached which fixes this problem. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add 'sci-astronomy/ds9 to /etc/portage/package.keywords 2. emerge sci-astronomy/ds9 Actual Results: >>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/sci-astronomy/ds9-4.13/work/saods9 ...

I don't know if I should have a gcc-3.4 version installed, as it appears this is what ds9 expects. I still think the ebuild would be incorrect (and fail) anyway.
