I just tried to emerge net-analyzer/ns and it needed dmalloc as a dependency. However, during the emrge process, it gave me the following output: configure: error: Installation of dmalloc seems incomplete or can't be found automatically. Please correct the problem by telling configure where dmalloc is using the argument --with-dmalloc=/path/to/package (perhaps after installing it), or the package is not required, disable it with --with-dmalloc=no. !!! Please attach the config.log to your bug report: !!! /var/tmp/portage/ns-2.28/work/ns-2.28/config.log -- I don't know how to attach the log file! Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

Please, re-emerge dmalloc and try again. If it's still a problem, reopen the bug and attach /var/tmp/portage/ns-2.28/work/ns-2.28/config.log. Creating an attachment is simple - just click on the "Create a New Attachment" link, select your file, enter a description ("config.log" is ok), select text/plain as the content type and click on submit.
