Hi, can you please attach the build.log file, It's location is mentioned at the end of the failed ebuild.

Is this about sci-misc/gcam? Please add the output of `emerge -pv sci-misc/gcam` as comment, and include <category>/<package>-<version> to the subject. Thanks

ChangeLog of gcam:

  08 Jan 2012; Andreas K. Huettel <dilfridge@gentoo.org>
  gcam-2010.07.27.ebuild, +files/gcam-2010.07.27-libpng15.patch,
  gcam-9999.ebuild:
  Fix build with libpng-1.5; thanks a lot to Samuli

And then:

>>> Emerging (2 of 2) sci-misc/gcam-2010.07.27
 * Applying gcam-2010.07.27-libpng15.patch [ ok ]

[ ... ]

>>> Installing (2 of 2) sci-misc/gcam-2010.07.27
 * checking 58 files for package collisions
>>> Merging sci-misc/gcam-2010.07.27 to /

So it looks to be fixed already.    Patches don't get applied to live versions, like 9999, but should get fixed by upstream then.

So looks like bogus bug...
