ROOT seems to be correctly compiled with both Pythia 6 and Pythia 8 support. In fact some frameworks based on ROOT requires both supports. Removing the two REQUIRED_USE atoms can walk through. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable both `pythia6` and `pythia8` USE flags 2. Try to emerge sci-physics/root:6.12 Actual Results: failed due to conflicting USE flags Expected Results: built with both pythia6 and pythia8 support

Thanks for reporting. Indeed, the limitation was there before, so I assumed that the two Pythia versions could not be installed at the same time, but there are no file conflicts, so after testing I removed it.
