Fine. I think that I found a relevant package: sci-mathematics/glpk-4.35

It even has an example called "assignment problem". If the package is
installed with the USE-flag "examples", the example will be installed to
[/usr/share/doc/glpk-4.35/examples/assign.mod]. I will look into that.
Looks infinitely more useful than most suggestions that I got so far.
