To debug the Gentoo mktexlsr.pl missing file problem, run
strace -f -o foo.strace tlmgr ....
You can then search for calls to open and access in the foo.strace
log; they will show you where files are being looked for, and tell you
whether they are found or not.
It could be that you have a $HOME/.texliveYYYY directory that contains
additional configuration files that are leading searches astray. If
so, try temporarily renaming $HOME/.texliveYYYY to, e.g.,
$HOME/.texliveYYYY-hide, and then rerun tlmgr.
