Did you restart your computer after you installed it? grace sets environemtvariables in /etc/env.d/10grace. If you don't want to restart your computer,just type `env-update; source /etc/profile` and then run xmgrace. (Or you could specify enviroment variable like `env GRACE_HOME=/usr/share/grace xmgrace`)
I had the same problem (I did not update my environment before starting xmgrace). Consequently, xmgrace searched for /usr/grace instead of /usr/share/grace, did not find it and gave me the error mentioned in the bug. But: why isn't the correct path not set during compilation? I mean, having the right value compiled in always makes everything easier than reading it from the environment.
You are quite right... The ebuilds use --with-grace-home=/usr/share/grace but this should be --enable-grace-home=/usr/share/grace. I fixed it in grace-5.1.10-r1 and grace-5.1.12-r1 (and also committed 5.1.13 released a week ago). Please run `emerge sync` and remerge them.
