As you can see by the URL given above, I've already got some input from others, but nothing could solve the problem for me, as of yet. A pretty obscure "bug", imho. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge {-uDN} mplayer 2. 3. Actual Results: fails with given message. Tries to unpack fonts not needed because of USE=truetype. Merging with USE=-truetype works, though. Expected Results: Should built just fine, as is always did and also does on another machine. emerge --info mplayer Portage 2.1.10.31 (default/linux/amd64/10.0/desktop, gcc-4.5.3, glibc-2.13-r4, 3.0.4-gentoo x86_64) ================================================================= System Settings ================================================================= System uname: Linux-3.0.4-gentoo-x86_64-Intel-R-_Core-TM-_i7_CPU_920_@_2.67GHz-with-gentoo-2.1 Timestamp of tree: Mon, 24 Oct 2011 14:15:01 +0000 app-shells/bash: 4.2_p10 dev-java/java-config: 2.1.11-r3 dev-lang/python: 2.7.2-r3, 3.2.2 dev-util/cmake: 2.8.6-r1 dev-util/pkgconfig: 0.26 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.1 sys-apps/openrc: 0.9.4 sys-apps/sandbox: 2.5 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.68 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6-r1, 1.7.9-r2, 1.10.3, 1.11.1-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.21.1-r1 sys-devel/gcc: 4.5.3-r1 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1-r1 sys-devel/libtool: 2.4-r4 sys-devel/make: 3.82-r3 sys-kernel/linux-headers: 2.6.39 (virtual/os-headers) sys-libs/glibc: 2.13-r4 Repositories: gentoo vmware enlightenment phorcix x-yubikey ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" ACCEPT_LICENSE="*" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=native -mtune=native -msse4 -mcx16 -msahf -mpopcnt -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/share/gnupg/qualified.txt" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/gentoo-release /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-march=native -mtune=native -msse4 -mcx16 -msahf -mpopcnt -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="assume-digests binpkg-logs distlocks ebuild-locks fixlafiles news parallel-fetch protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unknown-features-warn unmerge-logs unmerge-orphans userfetch" FFLAGS="" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/pub/Linux/gentoo http://distfiles.gentoo.org" LANG="de_DE.utf8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,--sort-common" LINGUAS="de de_DE en en_US" MAKEOPTS="-j9 --quiet" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_COMPRESS="xz" PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS="-9" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage/gentoo" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/var/lib/layman/vmware /var/lib/layman/enlightenment /usr/portage/phorcix /usr/portage/yubikey" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X acl alsa amd64 attr caps crypt idn mmx multilib nls nptl openmp pam pic sse sse2 sse3 ssl ssse3 unicode xcomposite xinerama xrandr" ALSA_CARDS="hda-intel" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="*" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache cgi cgid dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" CAMERAS="casio_qv" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="evdev joystick wacom" KERNEL="linux" LINGUAS="de de_DE en en_US" RUBY_TARGETS="ruby18" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, PORTAGE_BUNZIP2_COMMAND, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS ================================================================= Package Settings ================================================================= media-video/mplayer-1.0_rc4_p20110322 was built with the following: USE="X a52 alsa ass dvd dvdnav encode faac iconv jpeg mad mmx mp3 (multilib) network opengl osdmenu png quicktime radio real shm sse sse2 ssse3 theora tremor truetype unicode v4l2 vdpau x264 xinerama xv xvid -3dnow -3dnowext -aalib (-altivec) -amr (-aqua) -bidi -bindist -bl -bluray -bs2b -cddb -cdio -cdparanoia -cpudetection -custom-cpuopts -debug -dga -dirac -directfb -doc -dts -dv -dvb (-dxr3) -enca -esd -faad -fbcon -ftp -ggi -gif -gsm -ipv6 -jack -joystick -jpeg2k -ladspa -libcaca -libmpeg2 -lirc -live -lzo -md5sum -mmxext -mng -mpg123 -nas -nut -openal -oss -pnm -pulseaudio -pvr -rar -rtc -rtmp -samba -schroedinger -sdl -speex -tga -toolame -twolame -v4l (-vidix) -vorbis -vpx (-win32codecs) -xanim -xscreensaver -xvmc -zoran" VIDEO_CARDS="-mga -s3virge -tdfx -vesa"

Your environment file has an empty USE variable, which is very odd: declare -x USE="" Are you overriding USE in /etc/portage/bashrc, or /etc/portage/env/media-video/mplayer*?
(In reply to comment #2) > Your environment file has an empty USE variable, which is very odd: > > declare -x USE="" > > Are you overriding USE in /etc/portage/bashrc, or > /etc/portage/env/media-video/mplayer*? Let me start with, you sir are my personal hero - at least for the day :) In fact, I played with /etc/portage/package.env & the corresponding /etc/portage/env/media-video/mplayer. But I've got > #media-video/mplayer media-video/mplayer in package.env and thought this would comment it out. IIRC in package.env one shall define a config to read, thus I thought adding a # would comment it. Either this is a bug, something in portage changed in the meantime or I misunderstood the manpage. Anyway, I just deleted the file in question and it works again. Since I guess this was my fault, I'm setting this to resolved->cantfix (change if it's a bug). Thanks again :)
(In reply to comment #3) /etc/portage/env is sort of confusing since it contains files for 2 separate features: 1. /etc/portage/env/category/pkg files are processed as per-package bashrc files. 2. /etc/portage/env/* files are referenced by the /etc/portage/package.env file to provide per-package make.conf overrides. #1 only affects ebuild(1), so it is buggy to use it for environment variables. #2 affects both ebuild(1) and emerge(1), and is the preferred method for setting environment variables. Hope that clears it up.
Ah, ok, then it was just a misunderstanding. I thought I could name the file whatever I want and thus chose the same scheme I'll use for my package.{unmask,use}-dirs, so it's more logical and organized to me. Something like: /etc/portage/env/cat/app/name.rc and /etc/portage/env/cat/app/name.make would be more logical and less confusing, imho. Alternatively, if it doesn't have a #! in it, it should be treated as make.conf overrides... Thanks for clarification.
