Numerous times over the years, I have had fits with texlive* Heres's my scratch notes the last time I figured out the issue was fonts.... (another time it was EVILution.....(evolution). 1) equery b -f '/etc/texmf/.*' 2) Uninstalling all of the above reported ebuilds. 3) rm -rf /etc/texmf/* rm -rf /usr/share/texmf* emerge -C `qlist -I -C dev-texlive/*` 4) emerge -1 texlive YMMV. Basically, remove everything with textlive in the name as well as dependent packages (if all else fails) and check that it wants to install the version of textlive-* you need/want. Finding the actual culprit often burns many hours of hunt and seek....... Ocationally I have to rebuild the system.... caveat emptor...... Good hunting, HTH, James
