Cdrdao ebuild indeed lists >=app-cdr/cdrtools2.XX as a dependancy, but Kreuzberg cups # emerge -upDvt cdrdao These are the packages that I would merge, in reverse order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [nomerge ] app-cdr/cdrdao-1.1.9 -debug -gnome [ebuild N ] app-cdr/cdrtools-2.01 1,367 kB How could it be? Shouldn't it be blocked by dvdrtools? And again: Kreuzberg cups # emerge -upDv cdrtools These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild N ] app-cdr/cdrtools-2.01 1,367 kB What's happening? The ony strange thing in my system is "the big gnome mask" unmasked in /etc/portage/package.mask, but I can't see how it could be related to this.

Last sync seems to have fixed k3b dependancy
