[gentoo-user] Error in Emerge

[Konstantinos Bekiaris]

I get the following error from emerge. The same happens when I try to emerge
-uDN world. I can't update anything.

 * revdep-rebuild failed to emerge all packages.
 * you have the following choices:
 * - If emerge failed during the build, fix the problems and re-run
revdep-rebuild.
 * - Use /etc/portage/package.keywords to unmask a newer version of the
package.
 *   (and remove 5_order.rr to be evaluated again)
 * - Modify the above emerge command and run it manually.
 * - Compile or unmerge unsatisfied packages manually,
 *   remove temporary files, and try again.
 *   (you can edit package/ebuild list first)
 *
 * To remove temporary files, please run:
 * rm /var/cache/revdep-rebuild/*.rr
