[proaudio] amsynth permission denied

[Paul Winkler <pw_lists@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Any ideas?
When I try to emerge amsynth, I get this:

emerge amsynth Calculating dependencies... done!

!!! ERROR: media-sound/amsynth-1.1.0-r1 failed.
Call stack:
  ebuild.sh, line 1454:   Called die

!!! error sourcing ebuild
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call
stack if relevant.

!!! This ebuild is from an overlay:
'/home/pw/Downloads/Apps/Audio/proaudio_overlay/proaudio'


Any clues? I'm doing this as root, so it's not lack of privileges...
the ebuild file is not executable, but then, they never are??
