Yeah, so don't install stuff like libopensync-plugin-evolution2-9999 and you won't have dependency issues.

No, it doesn't want it, do not stick the 9999 versions to package.unmask and you won't have any such issue.

Yeah, so you've unmasked *every* *single* p.masked version out there; including the live VCS ones. If you cannot figure it out, do not use package.masked stuff; it's unsupported and you deal with it. Also note that bugzilla is not a support forum. Do NOT reopen this bug. http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/support.xml http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=3&chap=3
