Emerging gimp creates a symlink: /usr/share/man/man1/gimp-console.1 -> gimp-console-2.8.1 However, the link target does not exist, because it has .bz2 added: /usr/share/man/man1/gimp-console-2.8.1.bz2 -> gimp-2.8.1.bz2
How about version 2.8.2?
Looks like Gentoo's man page compression is at fault: # ls -al /usr/share/man/man1/gimp-console* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Aug 24 21:05 /usr/share/man/man1/gimp-console-2.8.1.bz2 -> gimp-2.8.1.bz2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Aug 24 21:05 /usr/share/man/man1/gimp-console.1 -> gimp-console-2.8.1
Actually, 2.8.1 never was in Gentoo, just 2.8.2. However, configure.ac wrongly says 2.8.1 at one place. I'm at it.
Thanks for reporting. Should be fixed. This is the new end result: # ls -al /usr/share/man/man1/gimp-console* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Sep 3 23:51 /usr/share/man/man1/gimp-console.1.bz2 -> gimp-2.8.1.bz2 + 03 Sep 2012; Sebastian Pipping <sping@gentoo.org> gimp-2.8.2.ebuild: + Prevent dead symlink gimp-console.1 (bug #433527) +

Please file a new bug.. gimp has a different maintainer now and this was ages ago.
I dropped the `mv "${ED}"/usr/share/man/man1/gimp-console{-*,}.1 || die;` line from `gimp-9999.ebuild` in the recent pull request in queue ( https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/39237 ).
