Created attachment 21783 [details] Build log
I have tetex-2.0.2-r3 installed, but I would expect most things to be the same. I have /usr/share/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf with 108 lines. How 'bout you?
I always had such a file /usr/share/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf, but the command kpsewhich --format='web2c files' fmtutil.cnf (used internally by fmtutil to find the config file) would not find it for several days, no matter whether TEXMF was set or not, and also after reinstalling tetex-2.0.2-r1. Today it does find it, and the ebuild succeeds. I have no idea why it works now; sorry. Setting resolution to WORKSFORME.
