When doing an emerge -avtuND system on a fresh install i get a circular dependencies error. in the additional information there's the output of emerge --info (please note that the SYNC option is set to a local server just synched).

Please, post the emerge output with >=portage-2.1.2-r13 installed.

Ok, now i solved it by myself with USE="-doc". tank you very much!!! :-)
Remove USE=doc from your USE flags and try again.
Oh OK, I'm too slow. :=) Yeah, that's the right workaround. Not much else we could do here until portage handles this automagically by temporarily disabling such flags which cause circular deptree, sorry.
