I'm a newbie on using Mac OS X and gentoo prefix. Hence, I have many problems arised in using them to resolve. One of them is how to compile firefox by gentoo prefix, although I know that there is a package named firefox for mac on mozilla's project page.
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
The following USE changes are necessary to proceed:
#required by www-client/firefox-14.0.1, required by firefox (argument)
=x11-libs/cairo-1.12.2-r3 X
#required by www-client/firefox-14.0.1, required by firefox (argument)
> =x11-libs/pango-1.30.1 X
#required by www-client/firefox-14.0.1, required by firefox (argument)
> =media-libs/libpng-1.5.12 apng
Use --autounmask-write to write changes to config files (honoring CONFIG_PROTECT).
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy ">=sys-apps/dbus-1.6.2".
(dependency required by "dev-libs/dbus-glib-0.100" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "www-client/firefox-14.0.1[dbus]" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "firefox" [argument])
The first question, I face to, is whether USE flag X should be select, because X11 for mac have been separated from Mac OS X since Mountain Lion. In fact, I have replaced USE Flag X by aqua in $EPREFIX/etc/make.conf.
Obviously, without proper ebuild on dbus is another question. Same problem also raised on installing the package, app-text/xdvipdfmx, when USE flag xetex is chosen for app-text/texlive. Maybe, the procedure on ebuild transition from gentoo-portage to gentoo-portage-prefix should be mentioned.
Anyone could help me?

The second problem has been solved by the script ecopy in $EPREFIX/usr/portage/scripts.

Well, we are missing an ebuild for dbus-1.6.2 but not dbus full stop.
The ebuild for dbus-glib-0.100 shouldn't technically be in the tree since one
of its dependency isn't but that kind of check is a lot of work.
Try masking (etc/portage/package.mask) =dev-libs/dbus-glib-0.100
may be firefox will be happy with dbus-glib-0.98.

Calculating dependencies... done!
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "sys-devel/bsdmake".
(dependency required by "virtual/pmake-0" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "sys-freebsd/freebsd-mk-defs-9.0-r1" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "dev-libs/libexecinfo-1.1" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "www-client/firefox-14.0.1" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "firefox" [argument])
The ebuild for sys-devel/bsdmake is missing even while I use the script ecopy to try to generate it.
What can I do?

Are you sure you need to build firefox? There are official binaries for your system [1].

You should install X from [2]. It's the same X.org fork which was shipped as part of Mac OS X since 10.5

Not much that's very odd. the virtual/pmake ebuild goes this way:
RDEPEND="kernel_linux? ( sys-devel/pmake )
kernel_SunOS? ( sys-devel/pmake )
kernel_Darwin? ( sys-devel/bsdmake )"
So on OS X (darwin) you should have bsdmake. That's bugzilla material.

I completely concur with Konstantin here. It is very ambitious to try
and emerge firefox on your Mac, for numerous reasons. The end result
will most likely not be what you expect (no native aqua interface),
unless you are willing to do major changes in the ebuild and eclass
machinery.

junqihu: If you are brave enough to proceed, I'd recommended you to build Firefox
manually (i.e. outside prefix without ebuild), and when you get acceptable results,
make respective changes to ebuild (dependencies, configure options).
