Description Petr Kovács 2019-03-11 21:41:03 UTC 
After installing x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-390.116 emerge shows following message:

(Note: Above message is only printed the first time package is installed. Please look at /usr/share/doc/nvidia-drivers-390.116/README.gentoo for future eference)

The file README.gentoo is not in /usr/share/doc/nvidia-drivers-390.116/. It is in 'html' subfolder. This is the correct path: /usr/share/doc/nvidia-drivers-390.116/html/README.gentoo

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2019-03-11 22:21:10 UTC 
It's interesting that readme.gentoo-r1.eclass would say that:

        elog "installed. Please look at ${EPREFIX}/usr/share/doc/${PF}/README.gentoo*"

because it does not (re-)set docinto itself so it cannot know where the file ends up.

    x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers: Call docinto after readme.gentoo_create_doc
    
    readme.gentoo-r1.eclass claims it knows where README.gentoo is stored,
    but it does not control docinto itself. Work around it by calling
    docinto for the HTML content after calling readme.gentoo_create_doc.
