app-editor/vis-9999 (and so probably the next release) needs static libraries of dev-lua/lpeg. Alpine Linux has https://git.alpinelinux.org/cgit/aports/tree/community/lua-lpeg/build-static-lib.patch for this, I believe it could be merged with lpeg-0.12.1-makefile.patch.
Correction: app-editors/vis-9999::lanodanOverlay The one in gentoo’s repo doesn’t have lua support as it needs >=dev-lang/lua-5.2.

Sorry, it was a mistake on my side I thought it wasn’t configuring well when it was configuring just fine. I’m closing it as invalid.
