Is this any help? https://openlunchbox.com/mw19/index.php/HOWTO:_Gentoo_for_LinuxCNC
We only really attempt to support Debian and debian-like distros. We simply don't have the resources to support everything.
FYI, here is how to install on a Gentoo host:
git clone https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc.git
cd linuxcnc
euse -E tk
emerge -uDNa world
python -m venv /path/to/venv
. /path/to/venv/bin/activate
pip install yapps2
pip install gi
emerge -a dev-libs/libmodbus
emerge -a dev-lang/tk
emerge -a dev-tcltk/bwidget
emerge -a dev-tcltk/tclx
cd src
./autogen.sh
./configure --enable-non-distributable=yes
make
make setuid
I'm sure this not perfect, but enough for any Gentoo-er to get going.
Is there a way to win you over to maintain a section in our documentation on how to build (and use) LinuxCNC on Gentoo? Merry Xmas btw!

I've not figure dout how to use, and I assume that is the same for all users. But I'd be happy to contribute a "Building for Gentoo" section. What file should I look at? I can submit an MR.
Merry Xmas btw!
And a Happy New Year!
May be something would fit into https://linuxcnc.org/docs/stable/html/code/building-linuxcnc.html ? The file to edit would be https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/2.9/docs/src/code/building-linuxcnc.adoc . Please note that I had selected the 2.9 branch for changes to the documentation that are likely compatible with the current stable version. The pull request should then also be against the 2.9 branch. Your contribution will then be merged with the master branch "a bit later".
That looks like the right place. Give me a few.days.
We need to all enjoy the season.

I forgot about this issue, so I also created a new issue for this.

Perhaps you can create a pull request for this, with a 'closes' reference to the relevant issues in the commit message?

I'm trying to build linuxcnc from "git clone" on Gentoo.
I get things like this:
All the world is not Debian...
