When I do "emerge --newuse --update --deep --tree --verbose world" I get a lot of package to recompile, but without any reason. exemple : root@efflam:~ # emerge --newuse --update --tree world >>> --tree implies --pretend... adding --pretend to options. These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order: Calculating world dependencies sh !!! Ebuilds for the following packages are either all !!! masked or don't exist: net-wireless/aircrack ... done!

That's because the use flags are gone from those perl ebuilds (so, they have changed). Not a bug.
