It seems that there is something wrong with nvidia-drivers and its file nvidia-settings, because I can't get revdep-rebuild to finish correctly.

If I try to install nvidia-drivers with gtk USE flag enabled, it installs media-video/nvidia-settings-180.60. But it fails during installing phase: >>> Installing (2 of 2) media-video/nvidia-settings-180.60 * This package will overwrite one or more files that may belong to other * packages (see list below). You can use a command such as `portageq * owners / <filename>` to identify the installed package that owns a * file. If portageq reports that only one package owns a file then do * NOT file a bug report. A bug report is only useful if it identifies at * least two or more packages that are known to install the same file(s). * If a collision occurs and you can not explain where the file came from * then you should simply ignore the collision since there is not enough * information to determine if a real problem exists. Please do NOT file * a bug report at http://bugs.gentoo.org unless you report exactly which * two packages install the same file(s). Once again, please do NOT file * a bug report unless you have completely understood the above message. * * Detected file collision(s): * * /usr/bin/nvidia-settings * /usr/share/applications/nvidia-settings.desktop * * Searching all installed packages for file collisions... * * Press Ctrl-C to Stop * * None of the installed packages claim the file(s). * * Package 'media-video/nvidia-settings-180.60' merged despite file * collisions. If necessary, refer to your elog messages for the whole * content of the above message. However another revdep-rebuild can assign file /usr/bin/nvidia-settings to a newly added package and finish correctly. But I think it should be fixed somehow, if the gtk USE flag is a mandatory.
As far as I know nvidia-settings was never part of x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers. As this is fixed by installing media-video/nvidia-settings, I'll close it as invalid.
