13 That version of foomatic is no longer in portage but you have it
14 installed and it DEPENDS on something that is also not in portage.
15 Apparently, you ran emerge --sync then this happened. It does happen
16 sometimes. So: emerge foomatic first, then foomatic-db-ppds to get the
17 latest that is in portage.

19 That might not work due to DEPENDs order, in which case you must unmerge
20 all foomatic packages and remerge them from scratch. This is a bit
21 drastic with updates and blockers and isn't normally necessary. But
22 sometimes it is, this looks like one of those times.
