What I usually do in that kind of situation is to mask the package |
| 2 |
I don't want, and retry. Then emerge tell me what is depending on it, |
| 3 |
and I check if some use flags can solve the problem, or I also mask this |
| 4 |
second package, etc., until I find what I can unmerge or which use flag |
| 5 |
to change to solve the issue. |

|
| 7 |
% mkdir -p /etc/portage (in case you don't have one already) |
| 8 |
% echo "x11-base/xfree" >> /etc/portage/package.mask |
| 9 |
% emerge -Duvp world |

You should get this error message: |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy "virtual/x11" have been masked. |
| 14 |
!!! (dependency required by "xxxxx/yyyy-1.2.3" [ebuild]) |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
It will be a good starting point to track the issue up to its origin. |
