Created attachment 151576 [details] emerge --info from my system
The same issue here, but I think the problem is due to dev-libs/libevocosm-3.3.0. Since I've upgraded to dev-libs/libevocosm-3.3.0, acovea need to be reemerged but doesn't compile.
Created attachment 154903 [details, diff] Patch to fix compilation errors Here is a patch against version 5.1.1 to fix the compile errors related to changes in the API of libevocosm. Confirmed locally to compile and work. Note that these errors occur with both the stable and unstable versions of libevocosm in portage; there is currently no way to actually compile this package (!)
I didn't do much research into the actual problem last night, so for clarification: There are two problems here; acovea 4.0.0 (which is currently stable) fails to compile with the stable version of libcoyotl (3.1.0), which is too new. Version 4.0.0 will work only with libcoyotl 3.0.1. This means that the stable versions of both packages will result in acovea failing to compile, obviously a serious problem. acovea 5.1.1 (currently ~x86) is built to work with libcoyotl 3.1.0 (stable, latest) and libevocosm 3.1.0 (~x86). It will NOT work with libevocosm 2.5.2 (stable) or with libevocosm 3.3.0 (~x86). There are a few solutions here; 4.0.0 could be fixed (by blocking/masking libcoyotl 3.1.0, to force the use of the older 3.0.1), but acovea 4.0.0 is very old now, and that solution doesn't really make sense to me, since it involves using even older versions of the packages. The other options would be to fix and stabilize acovea 5.1.1 and stabilizing libevocosm 3.1.0 or 3.3.0. This could be done either by blocking libevocosm 3.3.0 and unmasking 3.1.0, or by patching acovea to work properly with libevocosm 3.3.0, and stabilizing that as well. Patching is my preferred solution. The patch is attached in my previous comment. It simply changes the names (and in two cases, slightly changes the method but retains the same functionality) of the randomness functions in libevocosm to their counterparts in version 3.3.0. The fix would be to apply this patch to acovea 5.1.1 and have it depend on libevocosm >=3.3.0. I intend to bring this patch to upstream as well. Whichever solution is chosen, this needs to be dealt with - currently there is no way to build either version of acovea in portage without strange manual masking or unmasking.
Patch added in cvs, Thanks Special(John Brooks).
