I am on gentoo linux. dev-lang/clojure doesn't install clj . How do I get clj on gentoo linux?

The official CLI, you mean? Yes. I use LinuxBrew (on Ubuntu) to install a lot of things, although I use the official posix-install.sh for the Clojure CLI.
Be aware that Brew has a default clojure tap which is not official: clojure/tools/clojure is the official tap.

I'm on fedora, and I install brew to install clojure and babashka. I used to use the script but switched to brew because it was less work to update 😉

Unfortunately, there are some old/bad, unofficial clojure scripts out there in some Linux package managers, and it's hard to get them taken down 😞

clojure-tools from brew-install is very good...

Perhaps, clojure command from dev-lang/clojure can handle deps.edn?

clojure from dev-lang/clojure doesn't seem to support deps.edn.

Time to use the installer script.
