Apparently the Gambas wiki doesn't have any gentoo-specific instructions
(which is a bit surprising). The reason seems to be that, AFAICS, Gambas
is not in the main portage tree and the only overlay [1] I found is out-
dated. [ At least the repository hosting and the component list changed
since Gambas 3.8. ]

If you can't find any Gambas ebuild that you like, you have to make your
own or compile and install from source past your package manager.
For that, see here: [2].

Tobi
