I recently have mail-client/s-nail installed (because mail-client/nail will be masked in the near future) and now an update fails: %> ionice -c3 emerge --update --newuse --deep @world Calculating dependencies... done!

Additionally, I have not observed any problems with logcheck in combination with s-nail so far. Any ideas to solve the problem?
You could solve this locally by unmasking =virtual/mailx-2
great, thanks!
I ran into the same issue. Unmasking =virtual/mailx-2 solved it for me, too.
Same problem here. Workaround to unmask =virtual/mailx-2 also worked for me
I guess, this can be closed, as we have virtual/mailx-3, which has mail-client/s-nail.
