When I emerge blender the compile process starts without any problems and halts after a while with this message: gmake[2]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/blender-2.31a/work/blender-2.31a' /bin/sh ./libtool --mode=link gcc -O3 -march=athlon-xp -funroll-loops -pipe -funsigned-char -I/usr/include/freetype2 -DWITH_FREETYPE2 -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib -lfreetype -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib -o blender -L/usr/lib/python2.3/config -Xlinker -export-dynamic source/libblender_source.la intern/bsp/libblender_BSP.la intern/decimation/libblender_LOD.la intern/ghost/libblender_GHOST.la intern/string/libblender_STR.la intern/guardedalloc/libblender_guardedalloc.la intern/bmfont/libblender_BMF.la intern/container/libblender_CTR.la intern/memutil/libblender_MEM.la intern/iksolver/libblender_IK.la intern/moto/libblender_MT.la intern/SoundSystem/libsoundsystem.la -lpython2.3 -lm -lGLU -lGL -lX11 -lXext -lutil -ldl -lstdc++ -lSDL -lpng -ljpeg -lpthread -lz -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -lSDL -lpthread mkdir .libs libtool: link: cannot find the library `' gmake[2]: *** [blender] Fehler 1 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/blender-2.31a/work/blender-2.31a' gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Fehler 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/blender-2.31a/work/blender-2.31a' make: *** [all] Fehler 2 !!!

It's possible that you have a broken libSDL.la file. Take a look in /usr/lib/libSDL.la and if you have multiple instances of "-pthread" then change them to one instance of "-lpthread".
Ok, that was a problem, so this is a sdl-problem??
It's a known problem that seems to strike quite a few packages after emerging kde-cvs with arts support. See: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34804 http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=87167
update to libsdl-1.2.6-r3
