43 First check that you have not inadvertently added any virtual packages in
44 /var/lib/portage/world. If so remove them, portage will bring them back if
45 needed. Then use:
46
47 emerge -uaNDv world
48 emerge --depclean -p -v
49 emerge @preserved-rebuild -p
50 revdep-rebuild -v -- -a
51
52 perl-cleaner is also a good to run anytime portage updates any perl packages.
53
54 Have a look at 'man qdepends' for direct and reverse dependencies of different
55 packages. In your case jpeg seems to be borked, so investigate jpeg and jpeg
56 libraries with the above tools to see what may be causing the problem. It
57 could be that a package is in world that shouldn't be, or it could be that you
58 have some USE flag set that forces portage into a knot.

60 HTH.
