As suggested by wiki I used eclean packages to free about 3 GB of diskspace. Next I issued qpkg -c but this one segfaults. It used to work, but does not anymore. I then reinstalled portage-utils and gentoolkit as these were the two packages that I could think of qpkg belonging to, but still the same. Link with someone confirming same problem and additionally adding a backtrace: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1070004-highlight-.html emerge --info: Portage 2.3.8 (python 2.7.12-final-0,
