I'm running into issues with ppsspp 1.18.1+ rebuilds and not quite sure how to fix them on my end:

Errors are as such:
...

Adding emerge info as well.
Comment 2 Kyle D. 2025-03-12 21:57:51 UTC 
It seems that masking media-libs/sdl2-ttf-2.24.0 allowed ppsspp to build once again with errors. May need to adjust the ebuild to account for this, though there may also be an upstreamed fix that isn't in a point release quite yet.
Comment 3 Arve Barsnes 2025-03-14 16:38:16 UTC 
Confirmed downgrade of media-libs/sdl2-ttf worked for me as well.
Comment 4 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2025-03-14 16:41:11 UTC 
There's patches in https://github.com/hrydgard/ppsspp/issues/19839.
Comment 5 Maciej Barć gentoo-dev 2025-03-15 16:17:44 UTC 
In fact media-libs/sdl2-ttf is not even required by the ebuild.
