13 Have you done a depclean regularly? This package,
14 dev-python/ipaddress, has appeared in at least half of all threads
15 where someone is having upgrade trouble with these python errors. This
16 package left the repo a long time ago, and simply does not exist any
17 more, and hence can also be depcleaned.
18
19 emerge --depclean --pretend to see if you have a long list of packages
20 that portage could remove.
