Can you paste the exact output you get when you run: |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
# emerge -va --update --deep world |
| 31 |
the "-va" will make the output verbose and will ask for confirmation if all |
| 32 |
dependencies can be resolved correctly. |
| 33 |
(might be usefull to always use that to double check what you are installing) |
