I know why there is a problem... When you do an emerge freecraft, you install the 
version 1.18. When you install freecraft-fcmp, you install the version 1.17.2 instead 
of freecraft-fcmp-1.18... (freecraft-1.18 and freecraft-fcmp-1.17.2 are incompatibles). 
The first solution is to do an emerge 
/usr/portage/apps-games/freecraft-fcmp/freecraft-fcmp-1.18... But can you do the 
necessary for the command "emerge freecraft-fcmp" install the version 1.18 ?
