Yes, there is.  Try to emerge catalyst again and read what it actually
says.  There is no *web* documentation.

Umm... no.  The catalyst page most definitely does *not* point to
*anything* on gentoo-wiki.  I'm guessing you mean some random catalyst
page on gentoo-wiki, don't you?

Every livecd-stage1 "blocker" issue ever reported has been this same
issue.  I know it's hit this list a few times, but would likely be
difficult to search and find, since I bet most people would search for
the package in question, rather than the action being taken.
