Description Tom P. 2004-07-26 19:50:17 UTC 
xorg-x11-6.7.0-r1.ebuild created symlinks pointing to '//' in the fonts dir.  Whether this causes the font problems I'm having or that I've seen on the boards remains to be seen.  I've corrected the symlinks and trying the emerge again.  Slow box though....

Here are the symlinks - not all are bad if that helps track the problem.

Nah, (1) that's nothing and (2) you shouldn't have those paths in your config files after running etc-update. Check out bug #53753 for another idea.
