It would be simplest (and definately justified) to ask this to the Gentoo maintainer, because (s)he has apparently succeeded in setting that up (Gentoo's trees seem to bear only a passing resemblance to teTeX and would be more accurately called Gentoo-TeX). My best guess: find the non-etc version of texmf.cnf (I'm fairly certain there is one), and attempt to pass the root of texmf tree that contains it as --datadir to the configure script. Good luck, Taco
