fmtutil is supposed to create that directory by itself, by calling mktexdir, and give that error message if it wasn't created (/usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/fmtutil.sh line 590):
test -d "$destdir" || mktexdir "$destdir" >/dev/null 2>&1
test -d "$destdir" || abort "format directory \`$destdir' does not exist"
Where do you get these utilities from?

Do you get any error messages if you delete the ">/dev/null 2>&1" from the call to mktexdir at /usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/fmtutil.sh:590?

And yes, stripping ">/dev/null 2>&1" from /usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/texlive/fmtutil.sh:590 allows dev-tex/xmltex-1.9-r2.ebuild to emerge. This seems to correct my issue... But it doesn't seem like a fix, It looks like this is underlining another issue in dev-libs/kpathsea-6.2.0_p20140525 or app-text/texlive-core-2014-r4? Let me know if you would like a finished build.log of the dev-tex/xmltex-1.9-r2.

This seems to correct my issue... That's weird. That shouldn't make any difference to the result, just let you see any error messages. Looking at my own system, it seems that mktexdir writes a bunch of stuff to /tmp first. Did that filesystem happen to be full or otherwise unavailable when it failed? > Let me know if you would like a finished build.log of the dev-tex/xmltex-1.9-r2. Did mktexdir write anything interesting? It would be any lines between: >>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/dev-tex/xmltex-1.9-r2/work/xmltex/base ... and fmtutil: running `pdftex -ini -jobname=xmltex -progname=xmltex &latex xmltex.ini' ... This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.15 (TeX Live 2014) (INITEX) (In reply to Karl-Johan Karlsson from comment #5) > Looking at my own system, it seems that mktexdir writes a bunch of stuff to > /tmp first.

Temporary files get put in /var/tmp/portage/dev-tex/xmltex-1.9-r2/temp/. Masked for removal.
