Using the PHYlogeny Inference Package on Gentoo systems

Location of the factor program

On Gentoo systems, the PHYLIP program "factor" is named "factor-phylip", in
order to avoid a file collision with the program of the same name provided by
the "sys-apps/coreutils" package.

Location of the font files

PHYLIP programs will find font files only if they are in a directory
referenced by the "PATH" variable or if they are in the current working
directory. When working with PHYLIP programs that need these files, either
copy or symlink the fonts you need to your working directory, or add
"/usr/share/phylip/fonts/" to your "PATH" variable.
