[gentoo-user] Portage nonsense : this week's version

[Philip Webb]

I want to see which pkgs might have updates available in 'testing',
so I enter, where 'emergeu' = 'ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64" emerge'
(I do this every week, usually without any serious problem :
please don't reply "Thou mayest not mix 'stable' with 'testing' :
thou mayest iff thou ist careful to limit 'testing'
to non-system but reliable pkgs, eg Kernel or Vim etc) :

  USE="openssl qt5 text ruby_targets_ruby23 widgets gui network printsupport" emergeu -DNup world

The USE flags are the result of previous attempts at 'emergeu -DNup world'.

Portage replies (after some other irrelevant stuff) :

  !!! The ebuild selected to satisfy "app-crypt/pinentry" has unmet requirements.
  - app-crypt/pinentry-1.0.0::gentoo USE="-caps -emacs -gnome-keyring gtk ncurses qt4 qt5 -static" ABI_X86="64"

  The following REQUIRED_USE flag constraints are unsatisfied:
    at-most-one-of ( qt4 qt5 )

  The above constraints are a subset of the following complete expression:
    any-of ( ncurses gtk qt4 qt5 ) gtk? ( !static ) qt4? ( !static ) qt5? ( !static ) static? ( ncurses ) at-most-one-of ( qt4 qt5 )

  (dependency required by "app-crypt/gnupg-2.1.16::gentoo" [ebuild])
  (dependency required by "kde-base/kdelibs-4.14.27::gentoo" [ebuild])
  (dependency required by "kde-base/katepart-4.14.3::gentoo" [installed])

-- return to my observations --

I've listed 'qt5' among my USE flags & haven't listed 'qt4',
so it follows that I've specified "at most one of qt4/qt5".
Portage refuses to hear this, so I'm stuck.

Does anyone have a useful suggestion or do I report a bug ?
