IT WORKED!
I created local overlay manifest the barcode-0.98-r1.ebuild (get it
from gentoo "attic" )
emerged =app-text/barcode-0.98-r1
but it is missing something as there is a "?" beside installed version
Don't know why?
eix barcode shows:
[I] app-text/barcode
Available versions: 0.98-r1 ~0.99
Installed versions: 0.98-r1[?](06:45:36 PM 12/05/2020)
Homepage: https://www.gnu.org/software/barcode/
Description: barcode generator
re-emerged "app-office/glabels"
and the GNU barcode show up.
