Hi Jarry,

#grep LOG /etc/make.conf
# PORT_LOGDIR is the location where portage will store all the logs it
#PORT_LOGDIR=/var/log/portage

If that doesn't solve your problem, then you may need to explain the
problem you're trying to solve. (I'm always annoyed when I'm forced
to change the question instead of getting the answer :)
