There are missing parenthesis in the ebuild. Line 29 of app-sci/fung-calc-1.3.2b should probably be fixed as follows: - use amd64 && epatch ${FILESDIR}/fung-calc-fPIC || die - use amd64 && (epatch ${FILESDIR}/fung-calc-fPIC || die) Doing so works for me anyway...

Since it's better to apply the patch unconditionally (for prelinking), I just removed the broken stuff. Just a hint about your proposed solution: Try running true && (false || exit 1); echo Still alive
