Created attachment 321654 [details] emerge --info app-admin/metalog version 3 needs pkgconfig (going the alternative route doesn't look reasonable to me): From the NEWS file: * Version 3 [...] - switch to pkg-config for pcre look up [...] It fails building without it: checking for PCRE... no configure: error: in `/var/tmp/portage/app-admin/metalog-3/work/metalog-3': configure: error: The pkg-config script could not be found or is too old. Make sure it is in your PATH or set the PKG_CONFIG environment variable to the full path to pkg-config. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables PCRE_CFLAGS and PCRE_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. [...] With pkgconfig installed, everything is peachy. Thanks for your work!
