It depends on the error, don't forget, the error at the very bottom is |
| 13 |
just an emerge error, you need to go up till you find the actual error |
| 14 |
returned by the compilation. Don't forget, when updating packages, to use |
| 15 |
the D (capital d) option to make sure it catches *all* the libruaries etc. |

Nothing is blocked in Gentoo, there are no firewall scripts installed by |
| 24 |
default, even Iptables is not installed by default, os I'd suggest |
| 25 |
checking your set-up again. |

I suspect that the answer to that is when it has been tested and the |
| 31 |
ebuild has been created and fully tested for it, but I'm sure one of the |
| 32 |
devs can help you with that. |
