Do a -pv (pretend with flags) on evidence.
Then emerge (manually) each dependancy *apart* from those in e/evidence.
then install the e/evidence libs etc from cvs in the usual ./autogen.sh && make && make install way.
I understand that part. I always check with the '--pretend' flag first too ! :-)
Thing is with the gentoo package, whoever packaged it decided that it "needs" edb, eet, evas2 and so on (just making up possible dependencies). For the time being, I'll settle to do without those.

Hall, why don't you ask Mike Frysinger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>? He's frequently on the e-devel mailing list and he's a gentoo guy, plus he's helpful. He would know better how to install Evidence on Gentoo.
Gentoo actually has .ebuild packages available, but they're [Masked]. There's different reasons for a package being masked on Gentoo and one is that it's considered "unstable" (similar to Debian's unstable branch). I know of one way to get 'evidence' and that would be switching to the 'unstable' branch of Gentoo. Along with that though comes dozens of newer packages, which I'm hesitant to use just for one program (Evidence).
