71 I see you didn't follow the recommendation of getting rid of the
72 ::mate-overlay because
73 I'm still seeing mate-base/mate::mate-overlay and more in the output
74 I don't know how we could possible get forward if you don't follow-up on
75 the already
76 suggested instructions, no wonder you've been running circles.
77
78 Uninstall mate-overlay, emerge -C mate mate-power-manager
79 mate-session-manager and
80 anything else you have installed from there. Let Portage pull them back
81 in from the actual
82 Portage tree.
