Hm.
I use the regular no-multilib profile [26] default/linux/amd64/17.1/no-multilib (stable) * I tried keywording =dev-python/cryptography-2.7 in the hope that it would work with the newer libffi, but no luck. Could you please run equery b /usr/lib64/libffi.so.6 ...on your system, and post the output? I may have to revert to an older version, or hopefully slot it in. Looking at my /usr/portage/dev-libs/libffi directory... i660 /usr/portage/dev-libs/libffi # grep -i slot * grep: files: Is a directory libffi-3.2.1-r1.ebuild:SLOT="0" libffi-3.2.1-r2.ebuild:SLOT="0" libffi-3.2.1-r3.ebuild:SLOT="0" libffi-3.2.1.ebuild:SLOT="0" libffi-3.3_rc0.ebuild:SLOT="0/7" # SONAME=libffi.so.7 libffi-3.3_rc1.ebuild:SLOT="0/7" # SONAME=libffi.so.7 -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
