The end of the ebuild appears to be missing. The last lines of the ebuild (/usr/portage/media-sound/alsa-driver/alsa-driver-0.9.8.ebuild ) are: --- <big snip> then [ -x /usr/sbin/update-modules ] && /usr/sbin/update-modules fi einfo einfo "The alsasound initscript and modules.d/alsa have now moved to alsa-utils" einfo einfo "Also, remember that all mixer channels will be MUTED by default." einfo "Use the 'alsamixer' program to unmute them." ei --- (note no CR at last line, just EOF) which produces this output: --- laptop linux # env ALSA_CARDS="cs46xx" emerge alsa-driver ltmodem pcmcia-cs linux-wlan-ng thinkpad Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 5) media-sound/alsa-driver-0.9.8 to / /usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: /usr/portage/media-sound/alsa-driver/alsa-driver-0.9.8.ebuild: line 85: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"' /usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: /usr/portage/media-sound/alsa-driver/alsa-driver-0.9.8.ebuild: line 87: syntax error: unexpected end of file !!!

Oops, seems to have been a transient issue. Sorry.
