I think this will work.

Though I'm not sure it's the "proper" solution, removing "virtual/x11" from the ebuild allows the package to install just fine.

Most of the fonts aren't installed (various different formats, but the ebuild only recognizes one). @fonts, is there an ebuild writing manual for fonts? Devmanual doesn't mention anything about font-related specifics if I remember correctly. Myckel, emerge app-portage/eclass-manpages and you'll have man page for font eclass. On the other hand you may wish to read font.eclass itself. (In reply to comment #7) > Myckel, emerge app-portage/eclass-manpages and you'll have man page for font > eclass. On the other hand you may wish to read font.eclass itself. Thank you, didn't knew that. I've tried picking this up, but bumping into a problem. When unpacked most zip files unpack into $WORKDIR, but some unpack the fonts into $WORKDIR/some_folder. The latter ones aren't installed. So I thought to move the files to $WORKDIR, but now the question is in what function to do that. I tried font_pkg_setup and src_compile, but those didn't work. Any thoughts on how to do this properly? Myckel, great work! Could you please attach your version of ebuild so it is possible to continue to improve it even if you personally does not have resources to work on it?

The eclass really needs to be improved to handle multiple font directories and types but it's hard to do without breaking everything else. I started a rewrite a while back but never got back to it.

TLMT Fonts ebuild
I've rewritten the ebuild. The League of Moveable Type moved to github to store their fonts. I've fixed the downloads to the current state of the head branch. I've selected the otf files where available, and the ttf if not available. Some fonts offer both types, but it seems useless to me to install both.
Feel free to provide feedback. An initial test (using them in inkscape) seems to be working fine.
