1 I have two problems related to world on my ~amd64 system. I upgraded
2 gcc and finished the emerge -ev system, but I can't do the same to
3 world because of blockage. Specifically --
4
5 !!! Multiple versions within a single package slot have been pulled
6 !!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict:

8 www-client/mozilla-firefox:0

10 ('ebuild', '/', 'www-client/mozilla-firefox-2.0.0.14', 'merge') pulled in by
11 ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-haskell/gtk2hs-0.9.12.1', 'merge')
12 @world
13
14 ('ebuild', '/', 'www-client/mozilla-firefox-3.0', 'merge') pulled in by
15 @world
16 ('ebuild', '/', 'x11-plugins/noscript-1.6.9', 'merge')
17
18 x11-proto/printproto:0
19
20 ('ebuild', '/', 'x11-proto/printproto-1.0.3', 'merge') pulled in by
21 @world
22 ('ebuild', '/', 'x11-base/xorg-server-1.4.2', 'merge')
23
24 ('ebuild', '/', 'x11-proto/printproto-1.0.4', 'merge') pulled in by
25 @world
26 ('ebuild', '/', 'www-client/mozilla-firefox-2.0.0.14', 'merge')
27 ('ebuild', '/', 'x11-libs/libXprintUtil-1.0.1', 'merge')
28 (and 8 more)

30 This mess started before firefox-3.0.0 was released, but I have since
31 upgraded. I still get this complaint about 2.0.0.14. I have demerged
32 dev-haskell/gtk2hs, yet emerge -pev world still wants to drag it in
33 (it shows as [ N ]) and that apparently wants to drag in the old
34 firefox.
35
36 I have edited /var/lib/portage/world and gtk2hs is not present.
37 Firefox is present but has no version number.
38
39 So, two questions:
40
41 How do I tell portage that gtk2hs is not part of world any more?
42
43 How do I clear these blockages so I can emerge -ev world?
