I have a system that I'm just bringing back online after a few months down due to hardware issues and lack of resources to get new hardware. |

Some things are going okay - I got it past the e2fsprogs/e2fsprogs-lib update fiasco (after hosing it and using GRML to get it back up). |

However, I'm now stuck. |

emerge world -vuDN won't complete because a package can't use "java-config", complaining about python-updater needing to be run. |

However, python-updater won't run because the of blocks due to software being outdated and masked. |

So it's a catch-22. I need to install a new java-config and other software before I can get python-updater to run, but the emerge won't go through without running python-updater for at least one package. |
