You need to unmerge dev-libs/libindicator-0.4.1-r200 first, it seems.

no idea what Comment #0 means as the output is showing them getting installed in parallel just fine

Comment 3 p4 2011-12-04 12:53:44 UTC

I uninstalled both libindicator and xfce4-indicator-plugin (the only package depending on it), and reinstalled it without a problem. I don't know what happened either. Sorry for the trouble.
