Look in your /etc/portage/package.use whether any package has "libressl" 
USE flag set. Remove all occurrences of it (if there are any.)

Then, uninstall libressl:

   emerge -aC dev-libs/libressl

Now try the @world update again.

Try to update libbsd and keyutils first manually:

   emerge -a1 dev-libs/libbsd
   emerge -a1 sys-apps/keyutils

Also, to re-emerge @system, you should be using:

   emerge -ae @system

Try updating them manually:

   emerge -a1 dev-libs/libpcre2 net-wireless/bluez dev-libs/libxml2 
dev-db/unixODBC dev-db/sqlite dev-lang/python:2.7 net-fs/samba 
dev-lang/python:3.4

If it keeps failing, try to uninstall the affected packages, *except* 
python.

In general, with Gentoo, you should keep it updated at least once a 
month. If you leave it for too long, it might become unrecoverable and 
you'd need to install from scratch.
