I believe gnuboy fails to install in this instance because you didn't/don't have svgalib installed as you suggest, therefore sgnuboy isn't built and the dobin call dies. There is an updated ebuild in Bug #99983 which should allow you to install gnuboy, regardless of whether you want the svgalib version(svga use flag). It also changes a few other things at the same time, but if you only want to install gnuboy without fixing the deps the simplest way would be to loop over the names for dobin and test them. Something like: for i in fbgnuboy sdlgnuboy sgnuboy xgnuboy; do [ -x $i ] && dobin $i done Obviously it isn't the right fix though ;) [Fix the bug summary to the correct version, 1.0.3, too]
Tank you for your hint. If #99983 solves several problems (and also this one), I'll mark this Bug as DUP. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 99983 ***
