Created attachment 889086 [details] emerge --info while trying to fix unicode problems in my LaTeX install, related to outdated unicode-math.sty, I upgraded all necessary latex packages to 2023-* versions, but now xelatex isn't able to output PDF files due to missing /usr/bin/xdvipdfmx, which was previously provided by app-text/texlive-core. $ qfile -v /usr/share/texmf-dist app-text/dvipsk-2023.03.11_p66203: /usr/share/texmf-dist app-text/texlive-core-2023-r5: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-libs/kpathsea-6.3.5_p20230311: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-tex/bibtexu-3.71_p20210325: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-tex/glossaries-4.53: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-basic-2023_p59159-r2: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-bibtexextra-2021: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-fontsextra-2021: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-fontsrecommended-2023_p54074: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-fontutils-2021: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-langenglish-2021: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-langgerman-2021: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-latex-2023_p69131-r1: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2023_p69752-r2: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-latexrecommended-2023_p69131: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-luatex-2023_p69404: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-mathscience-2023_p69485-r1: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-pictures-2023_p69409-r1: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-plaingeneric-2021: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-pstricks-2021: /usr/share/texmf-dist dev-texlive/texlive-xetex-2023_p69452-r1: /usr/share/texmf-dist
If I am not mistaken, then (x)dvipdfmx is provided if the enable the 'cjk' USE flag on texlive-core. Regardless if this is sensible, could you enable the 'cjk' USE flag, re-emerge texlive-core-2023, and report back if this now installs xdvipdfmx which is able to generate PDf files?

Yes, USE=cjk does install xdvipdfmx and makes xe(la)tex work. Without +cjk it fails to generate PDFs, ie is fully non-functional - and yes, that does not make sense :-) Just checked that the culprit in the ebuild is "$(use_enable cjk dvipdfm-x)" - maybe a dependence on the "xetex" use flag was intended, if xetex is really the only user of xdvipdfmx.
