Created attachment 208821 [details] The build log
Which tex distibution are you using? The missing files are provided by app-text/texlive-core on my system.
I'm using Texlive, though so far without the xml use-flag. That only got added after I switched to the new 10.0 profile.
CCing tex@g.o @tex guys: Any idea what that could be? There is a bug with the same error, but another package (bug 291395).
This problem appears with a number of other ebuilds, gnuplot for example is affected as well. The files in question are in fact present on my system, one in /usr/share/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf (symlinked to /etc/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf), the other in /usr/share/texmf/texconfig/tcfmgr.map, but that doesn't seem to help at all. Both these files do, in fact, belong to texlive-core. Remerging texlive-core doesn't help.

Created attachment 209448 [details] Output of texconfig conf
I have created a new attachment for the output of texconfig conf on my machine. (By the way, is it normal for there to be that many warning messages in there?) TEXMFMAIN /is/ set to /usr/share/texmf.

Seems you broke your ls-R files; this sounds like a fs corruption. Try deleting those files: (In reply to comment #10) > mktexlsr: //etc/texmf/ls-R lacks magic string.

FYI - i had a very similar problem during a texlive update. I did not get the magic string messages but similar kpathsea errors. Deleting and recreating the files as suggested in comment #11 did work for me.
