I gave it a go anyway... ;) |

Checking for mandatory system updates... Done. |

The following packages can't be merged until your system is updated: |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
kde-base/kde |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
The following important packages are either not up to date or not installed: |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
virtual/baselayout sys-apps/coreutils sys-apps/debianutils |
| 17 |
sys-apps/diffutils sys-apps/file sys-apps/findutils sys-apps/gawk |
| 18 |
sys-apps/grep sys-apps/groff sys-apps/kbd sys-apps/man sys-apps/man-pages |
| 19 |
sys-apps/net-tools >=sys-apps/portage-2.0.51.22 sys-apps/sed |
| 20 |
sys-apps/shadow sys-apps/texinfo sys-apps/which virtual/modutils |
| 21 |
virtual/pager sys-apps/busybox sys-apps/hdparm sys-apps/util-linux |
| 22 |
sys-apps/linux32 >=sys-apps/baselayout-1.9.4-r7 |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Please retry your command after updating your system. |

These are the packages that I would merge, in order: |

Calculating system dependencies ...done! |

[ebuild N ] sys-apps/sandbox-1.2.17 |

[ebuild N ] sys-apps/sed-4.1.4 USE="-bootstrap -build -nls -static" |

[ebuild N ] sys-apps/debianutils-2.15 USE="-build -static" |
| 34 |
[ebuild N ] sys-apps/portage-2.1_pre1 USE="-build" |

*** Portage will stop merging at this point and reload itself, |
| 36 |
recalculate dependencies, and complete the merge. |
| 37 |
You may avoid the remerging of packages by updating portage on its own. |
| 38 |
[ebuild N ] sys-apps/help2man-1.35.1 USE="-nls" |
| 39 |
[ebuild N ] sys-apps/coreutils-5.3.0-r2 USE="-acl -build -nls -static" |
| 40 |
[ebuild N ] sys-apps/sysvinit-2.86-r3 USE="-bootstrap -build -ibm |
| 41 |
-static" |
| 42 |
[ebuild U ] sys-libs/readline-5.1 [5.0-r2] |
| 43 |
[ebuild N ] sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.0_pre11-r3 USE="unicode -bootstrap |
| 44 |

* Portage is moved to the top of both system and world |
| 52 |
* All system atoms are checked that they are matched by installed packages |
| 53 |
and emerge refuses to do anything until unsatisfied atoms are installed |
| 54 |
and/or updated. |
| 55 |
* EMERGE_INSANITY_OK is provided for bootstrap.sh (and emerge itself) to |
| 56 |
bypass the checks when the system is known to be in an incomplete state. |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
Reasoning on checking all system atoms is that other groups are just as likely |
| 59 |
to need the functionality as we are. Combining that with how rarely versions |
| 60 |
are actually updated for system packages, it shouldn't cause any more bother |
| 61 |
to users than it needs to. |
