I installed the Gentoo pkg 'dpkg', which handles .deb archives, & listed the content of the 3 .deb files in the Epson driver pkg. They cb viewed at http://chass.utoronto.ca/~purslow/test/ with names beginning with 'v550'. It appears that the pkg installs a utility 'iscan', a Sane plugin called 'epkowa', which is not available via Sane-backends ( /etc/hotplug/usb/libsane.usermap doesn't list it), plus some further data files + a lot of dox. I've tried 3 methods without success : (1) install Iscan via Portage & copy the other files in the .deb ; (2) copy all the files in the .deb (apart from dox) (list checked) ; (3) try to run the install.sh script. None of them succeeds in getting the scanner recognised. There is a pkg media-gfx/iscan-plugin-gt-x820 for a V600 : I could take the V550 back & exchange it for a V600 & try to install Iscan + data + that plugin. Any suggestions are very welcome. I have an Epson 4490 which is supported by epkowa plugin iscan-plugin-gt-x750. I found that ebuild on an overlay long ago. That ebuild looks much like the ones currently in the tree for newer models. In each of the ebuilds I looked at, there is an "iscan-registry" command executed subsequent to installing all the files which registers the plugin. Perhaps this is what is missing. The registration command includes a USB identifier which will differ with scanner model.

[gentoo-user] bibletime segmentation fault
I'm having trouble with the pair of packages bibletime-2.9.1 and clucene-2.3.3.4-r3, which were both recently stabilized. The pair of packages emerges without problem. On launch of bibletime from a terminal command, a blank splashscreen appears, followed in a number of seconds by a reported segmentation fault. Reverting to the older pair bibletime-2.3.3 and clucene-0.9.21b-r1 restores proper functionality. The newer stable bibletime will not emerge with the older stable clucene, and the older stable bibletime will not emerge with the newer stable clucene. An attempt with the testing version clucene-2.3.3.4-r4 did not make an apparent difference. I am seeing the same behavior on an amd64 machine and an x86 machine that are generally similarly configured. I'd like to see if anyone else has observed this problem, or if I need to be looking for something specific to my machines. Thanks, Gene

A recent glibc update has apparently had an effect on wget and its use of /etc/resolv.conf. See http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-810843.html. I had a similar experience in which some applications had no issue with dns, but emerge failed to find some distribution files until resolv.conf was cleaned up.
[gentoo-user] portpeek and relative vs absolute path
I'm seeing a quirk in portpeek on one of two machines with similar installations. Portpeek responds with, for example, package.keywords: Could not find file etc/portage/package.keywords Note the absence of an initial slash. The program executes correctly from "/" as a working directory. The system is up to date, x86 with ~x86 as required for KDE-4.2 and a handful of others. Python 2.5.4 is the only version installed, and the behavior is the same with eselect-python-20090801 or -20090804. I've tried simply re-emerging portage, portpeek, eselect, and python-eselect with no effect, and seen the same behavior with gentoo-sources-2.6.28-r5 and 2.6/30-r4. My other machine with the same versions of the packages that are likely to be related executes portpeek from any working directory, as did the machine in question until a few weeks ago. Any tips on where to look next?
