I am interested in hosting my own Mozilla Sync Server.

http://docs.services.mozilla.com/howtos/run-sync.html

Are there any e-builds out there for this?

Not sure if anyone still needs them, but I just pushed all required ebuilds for Mozilla Sync Server to https://github.com/stintel/mozilla-sync-overlay.

That does not show up in my layman overlay.
Is that expected?

Yes, that is expected. To install via layman, add this to "overlays : " in /etc/layman/layman.cfg:
http://www.linux-ipv6.be/mozilla-sync.xml

Don't forget to run "layman -f" before trying to add the overlay again.

Went to OwnCloud with the mozilla_sync app instead.

I had a more or less working install using the source code straight from Mozilla. Now I tried the ebuild in the overlay by Stintel which works fine except the server keeps complaining about:

KeyError: "Unknown fully qualified name for the backend: 'services.auth.sql.SQLAuth', or error in the module: cannot import name Column"

When I used the source code I had to manually use the (local) easy_install to install python-Mysql. That's why I suspect that the first part of the error message isn't important, but it's about the missing 'Column'. Using sqlite gives the same error message.

Any suggestions?

Unless the overlay's code is quite old (Jan 2012!), you may be wrong to overlook the first part: at that time, the SQL auth backend was changed to "services.user.sql.SQLUser" so this is what should be in your config file (bin/sync.conf in the Mozilla distribution).
Code:

#...
[auth]
backend = services.user.sql.SQLUser
sqluri = sqlite:////path/to/your/sync.db
#...


Info here.

On the other hand, I was getting this error with the new backend... ultimately had to completely clean-install the server from Mozilla's repo :(
