Why emerge tries to replace libvpx 1.7 with 1.6+1.8 in this case? I've asked about this issue on IRC - they help me by recommending to remove "=media-libs/libvpx-1.8.0-r1" from package.keywords, but they was unable to explain reason why emerge tries to install 1.8.0 and downgrade 1.7.0 at first place. So, I've opened this bug to ask for such a reason, because I suspect it may be a bug in emerge. # grep -r libvpx /etc/portage /etc/portage/package.use:www-client/chromium system-libvpx /etc/portage/package.use:# required by www-client/chromium-57.0.2987.133::gentoo[system-libvpx] /etc/portage/package.use:>=media-libs/libvpx-1.5.0 postproc svc /etc/portage/package.keywords:# required by www-client/firefox-65.0.2::gentoo[system-libvpx] /etc/portage/package.keywords:=media-libs/libvpx-1.8.0-r1 ~amd64 /etc/portage/package.keywords:# required by www-client/firefox-65.0.2::gentoo[system-libvpx] /etc/portage/package.keywords:=media-libs/libvpx-1.7.0 ~amd64 # eix libvpx Available versions: 1.5.0(0/3) ~1.6.0-r1(0/4) ~1.6.1(0/4)^t (~)1.7.0(0/5)^t ~1.8.0(0/6)^t (~)1.8.0-r1(0/6)^t {doc +highbitdepth postproc static-libs svc test +threads ABI_MIPS="n32 n64 o32" ABI_PPC="32 64" ABI_S390="32 64" ABI_X86="32 64 x32" CPU_FLAGS_X86="avx avx2 mmx sse sse2 sse3 sse4_1 ssse3"} Installed versions: 1.7.0(0/5)^t(13:03:10 03/09/19)(highbitdepth postproc svc threads -doc -static-libs -test ABI_MIPS="-n32 -n64 -o32" ABI_PPC="-32 -64" ABI_S390="-32 -64" ABI_X86="64 -32 -x32" CPU_FLAGS_X86="avx mmx sse sse2 sse3 sse4_1 ssse3 -avx2") Homepage: https://www.webmproject.org Description: WebM VP8 and VP9 Codec SDK # emerge -uDNav --verbose-conflicts world These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

However, it is also possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are impossible to satisfy simultaneously. If such a conflict exists in the dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can not be installed simultaneously.
