31 Sorry for all not italian people I made a mistake and it's easyer for me
32 explain it in italian:
33
34 Mi sono spiegato male, intendevo dire di fare prima l'aggiornamento di
35 sys-apps/baselayout e solo *dopo* emergere sysvinit, forse e' questo che
36 ti blocca.
37 L' idea mi e' venuta vedendo che se provo a emergere entrambi i
38 pacchetti sui miei sistemi non mi viene segnalato alcune errore.
39 Se anche questo non funziona prova a fare un
40 emerge --sync
41 od ad aggiornare portage.

63 English again
64 Older version of portage had a cache of virtual ebuilds installed keeped
65 on disk, newer portage (>= 2.51 I think) should generate it on demand.
66 virtual is the gentoo way to keep track of what ebuild is installed and
67 provide a certain functionality.
68
69 Maybe there is something dirty in your /var/lib/portage/world file that
70 keep track of your installed ebuilds or in the case of an older package
71 in the virtual cache file.
72 My knowledge finish here sorry.
