(In reply to comment #1) > Created attachment 273431 [details] > emerge --info Looking at the emerge -pqv output, I see that portage would have unmerged sys-libs/db-1.85-r3, as there already is a blocker. So probably the only thing you'll have to do is make that blocker a strong compile-time blocker, i.e. !! instead of !.

Thanks for catching and reporting it.
