This was the result off ghostscript failur during emerge gnome session on a clean installation.
Has nothing to do with Gnome, and review http://bugs.gentoo.org/page.cgi?id=fields.html#bug_severity please.
Reopen once you've explained _what_ exactly failed to build for you and posted some errors.
its a bugg,cant you see. When the flags sdl and mpeg is specified in make.conf nasm depends on ghostscript to already be installed. Since ps2pdf is a binary that belongs to ghostscript. Nasm fails emerge because of its missing ps2pdf. One should not need to go through a emerge it twice to enable these flags. Then they should be removed from the ebuild or it should be stated at emerge.

its a bugg allright. When the flags sdl and mpeg is specified in make.conf ghostscript requires nasm to be emerged. Since ps2pdf is a binary that belongs to ghostscript the result is that nasm fail emerge. One should not need to go through emerge twice to have these flags enabled. That is first install ghostsript without those flags descriped above and then enable them and remerge ghostscript. That i call a bug. It dosnt need anymore explenation.

Read this other bug, nothing we could fix here. Don't reopen. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 116114 ***
