19 Hi,
20 There was such thread nearly a week ago.
21 Generally speaking you first unmerge all blocking packages, then
22 emerge "poppler" (which replaces xpdf).
23 Just one more thing - watch for available/needed USE-flags,
24 'openmotif' comes to mind.
25 Second, the new version of 'openmotif' is blocked by prev. version.
26 Unmerge openmotif then emerge it again.
27 Or better unmerge all [B]'s then run emerge -u[DN] world -av.
28 This answer came out rather messy but HTH.
