When emerging app-editors/fte, fte will emerge and compile, but, will not be usable unless either the X or slang USE variables are set before the emerge. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Using a Gentoo system without the X and slang USE flags set... 2. Emerge fte (either stable or unstable) 3. Run fte Actual Results: If you emerge FTE without either of these packages installed, when trying to run FTE, you will recieve an error that it cannot find either sfte or xfte (the two actual executables for the program, one being the slang-enabled version and one being the X-enabled version) Expected Results: The ebuilds should require either the X or slang flags to be set in app- editors/fte I afterwards added slang to my use flags, and recompiled fte. fte now works properly. Here is the emerge info from before the slang addition to my use flags.

without slang and X use flags - you still can use vfte (which is works thru vc's)
