...

Congratulations!  Build is complete.

Now, run "make install" as root, or whatever user has permissions

I downloaded the new ebuild from CVS to make it work at all. Did I miss something ? I thought the only that changed was the .ebuild file.

I can confirm this bug as well, definately needs to be looked into.

Please submit your `emerge info`. Also, does setting MAKEOPTS to "-j1" solve
the issue?

MAKEOPTS="-j1" emerge -va preview-latex
failed with the same error
