(1 2 3 4) as above, then  54  pkgs, but no  eudev .
It wants to update to  udev-206-r3
& wants to remove  openrc-0.12  to admit  kmod-15 .

It looks as if it's the kitchen-sink approach suggested by someone else,
ie KDE has added a lot of extra stuff as requirements for Digikam.
It's like Gnome requiring Systemd & Firefox requiring sound libraries,
even if (like me) there's no sound enabled in the kernel or elsewhere.

So the outcome seems to be that I will stick with Fotoxx,
which so far has proved a useful photo-editing pkg.
Its requirements are much simpler (again, my home-made pkg list):

    130606 gnome-base/gnome-common-3.6.0 [for gtkimageview]
    130606 media-libs/exiftool-9.120.0 [for fotoxx]
    130606 media-libs/lensfun-0.2.7 [ ~ : for ufraw]
    130606 media-gfx/dcraw-9.17 [ ~ : for fotoxx]
  W 130606 media-gfx/fotoxx-13.05 [~]
    130606 media-gfx/gtkimageview-1.6.4 [for ufraw]
    130606 media-gfx/ufraw-0.19.2 [for fotoxx]
    130606 sci-libs/cfitsio-3.340 [ ~ : for ufraw]

Further comments welcome ; otherwise, thanx to everyone for the suggestions.
