13 llvm is pulled in on most of my systems as a dependency of something
14 else. It doesn't conflict with having gcc installed.
15
16 emerge sys-devel/llvm

18 And try again. If that fixes it, you should file a bug against the
19 specific package failing to build, noting the missing explicit build
20 dependency.
