Snort's version bump to 2.9.0.4 included a patch. Somewhere along the upload to Bugzilla or download/commit process, ms-dos line endings were added to the patch that got committed. This is causing the ebuild to fail for all users! the patch can be found at Bug 355865. All that is needed is a non-corrupted version to committed to portage. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Created attachment 263817 [details] disabledynamic.patch patched attached here as well. hopefully with no MS-DOS line-endings
This bug has been fixed and the patch included with the Snort-2.9.0.4 ebuild is now working and in portage. Thanks

Yes, it seems to have been CVS revision 1.1 to 1.2 that fixed it.
