make.conf has ABI="x86_64" in LiveDVD 2016 I know the correct name of ABI for Gentoo is "amd64", but "x86_64" works for most packages, and has been set by LiveDVD builders themselves. net-libs/nodejs wouldn't build with this setting because it has custom arch names for configuration in ebuild: case ${ABI} in amd64) myarch="x64";; arm) myarch="arm";; arm64) myarch="arm64";; ppc64) myarch="ppc64";; x32) myarch="x32";; x86) myarch="ia32";; *) myarch="${ABI}";; esac I suggest adding x86_64) myarch="x64";; to this list. The corresponding error message is >>> Configuring source in /var/tmp/portage/net-libs/nodejs-6.7.0/work/node-v6.7.0 ...
