Dependencies could not be completely resolved due to the following required packages not being installed: =dev-java/blackdown-jdk-1.4.2* required by virtual/jdk-1.4.2 All the Java stuff I have installed depends on >=virtual/jdk-1.4 and emerge --update doesn't want to reinstall an 1.4 JDK either, given that I have Sun's JDK 1.5 installed.

The fact than depclean didn't unmerge virtual/jdk-1.4.2 automatically seems to indicate that it's still needed for some reason. A world update with --deep should have pulled in blackdown-jdk-1.4.2 in that case. Please post output for both `emerge --pretend --debug --depclean` and `emerge --pretend --debug --deep world`.
