Not only that, but why don't they also accept media-fonts/liberation-fonts? In my case it is media-gfx/imagemagick-6.4.0.6 that forces me to have media-fonts/corefonts, as I don't have installed any of the 3 packages you mentioned -- Software is like sex: it is better when it is free - Linus Torvalds
