Hello

I am building a linux AP using a clean installation of gentoo and this
howto:

http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Building_a_Wireless_Access_Point_With_Gentoo

Everything was going great until I came to emerging bridge-utils.

the actual emerging didnt fail (using "emerge bridge-utils -av") but
typing the command brctl it tells me '-bash: brctl: command not found'

next I try "whereis brctl", resulting in:

brctl: /usr/man/man8/brctl.8.gz /usr/share/man/man8/brctl.8.gz

ok, so the man files are there, it seems the package was installed. but
no binary.

Using "find / -name brctl"  i also got nothing.

It seems that there is no binary, I have tried emerging again,
unmerging, updating and the like, still the same problem.  The emerge
itself doesnt fail with the usual "Error..." so I presume thats fine (or
am i wrong that
emerge would halt on all errors?)

Any help appreciated as I am somewhat at a loss as to whats going on.

thanks
