IT WORKED!

I created local overlay manifest the barcode-0.98-r1.ebuild  (get it
from gentoo "attic" )
emerged =app-text/barcode-0.98-r1
but it is missing something as there is a "?" beside installed version
Don't know why?

eix barcode shows:

[I] app-text/barcode
     Available versions:  0.98-r1 ~0.99
     Installed versions:  0.98-r1[?](06:45:36 PM 12/05/2020)
     Homepage:            https://www.gnu.org/software/barcode/
     Description:         barcode generator

re-emerged "app-office/glabels"
and the GNU barcode show up.
