From http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=152825&highlight=libcaca : USE="-doc" makes the errors go away. (It works for me as well.)
First: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46243 appears to be a duplicate of this bug. The /var/cache/fonts directory can be changed either through texconfig or $VARTEXFONTS. In order to build libcaca's ps documentation you'll need to change the cache directory to somewhere inside PORTAGE_TMPDIR. The easiest way to do this is to modify src_compile like this: --- libcaca-0.9.ebuild-vanilla 2004-04-16 10:08:25.073628616 -0700 +++ libcaca-0.9.ebuild 2004-04-16 10:08:48.245106016 -0700 @@ -18,6 +18,7 @@ X? ( virtual/x11 )" src_compile() { + export VARTEXFONTS="${T}/fonts" econf \ `use_enable doc` \ `use_enable ncuses` \ @@ -26,6 +27,7 @@ `use_enable X x11` \ || die emake || die + unset VARTEXFONTS } Unfortunately this method will force the new fonts to be recreated each emerge as the cache is temporary. A more permanent solution would be to use `kpsewhich -expand-var='$VARTEXFONTS'` or --expand-var='$TEXMFMAIN' and put the new fonts in ${D}/$TEXFONTS . I'll try to put a patch together later today, but I'm still trying to figure out how to detect whether or not to use vartexfonts vs. texmfmain.

added the temp fix until a more perm solution can be found ... please re-open in that case ;)
