19 For some reason, it thinks you have eselect-opengl installed, but it
20 can't find its file. You can set up the symlinks by hand. But your
21 system will never build nicely until you get eselect-opengl installed
22 properly, because many ebuilds will try to use it.

28 You did 'emerge eselect-opengl' successfully? It has three files:
29 polylepis ~ # qlist eselect-opengl
30 /usr/share/eselect/modules/opengl.eselect
31 /usr/lib/opengl/global/include/glext.h
32 /usr/lib/opengl/global/include/glxext.h
33
34 (qlist is part of portage-utils --- emerge it please, if you have not
35 yet, then try the command I show above.)
36
37 The module is this one:
38 /usr/share/eselect/modules/opengl.eselect
39
40 And
41 eselect opengl list
42 should show you which implementations of opengl you have installed
43 (for you, xorg-x11).
44
45 Now, you can force a build of eselect-opengl like this:
46 ebuild /usr/portage/app-admin/eselect-opengl/eselect-opengl-1.0.5.ebuild
47 install
48 (one command line)
49 At that point, those 3 files will be installed in
50 /var/tmp/portage/app-admin/eselect-opengl-1.0.5/image
51 Then, either
52 ebuild /usr/portage/app-admin/eselect-opengl/eselect-opengl-1.0.5.ebuild
53 qmerge
54 will install them, or you can copy them to where they belong by hand.
55
56 But I see no way you can get a clean install from
57 emerge eselect-opengl
58 and not be able to use it.
