It works for me, and we haven't had any recent changes in the relevant code. Can you reproduce it? If so please attach all emerge output for the entire upgrade: emerge --oneshot --verbose dev-libs/libindicate &>libindicate.log
Created attachment 294099 [details] verbose logfile
I've fixed this by adding the blockers to RDEPEND where they have to be for file collisions.
Thanks Zac
Thanks for correcting this report. I did not know there are two types of blocks and hence assumed portage always uninstalled too late / would not ignore.
