Created attachment 404728 [details] games-emulation/zsnes-1.51-r4 failed build.log As described in the summary, games-emulation/zsnes-1.51-r4 does not link correctly against ncurses when ncurses[tinfo] is selected. I have another amd64 computer that uses ncurses[-tinfo] and it links fine there. Going into /var/tmp/portage/games-emulation/zsnes-1.51-r4/work/zsnes_1_51/src and adding -ltinfo to the compilation command causes the compilation to succeed. See the attached build.log for the exact error. emerge --info zsnes output: Portage 2.2.20 (python 3.3.5-final-0, default/linux/amd64/13.0/desktop/kde, gcc-5.1.0, glibc-2.20-r2, 4.0.4-gentoo x86_64)

Created attachment 404730 [details, diff] zsnes-1.51-r4-ncurses-tinfo.patch, adds check for tinfo This configure.in patch adds a check for tinfo. I placed the patch in /etc/portage/patches/games-emulation/zsnes-1.51-r4/ and modified the local zsnes ebuild to use epatch_user and was able to get the package to compile. The check is pretty dumb and simple, so it could be improved if necessary (I don't think it's necessary? I'm not sure).
should be fixed by just using pkg-config
