I cannot upgrade to mysql-8 because it does not have a server use flag required by virtual/mysql. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -1pv dev-db/mysql Actual Results: These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

Newer packages depend on mysql-c-connector, I think you can remove virtual/mysql and install mysql-8 directly.
Seems like you have missed some news items over the last 2 years: virtual/libmysqlclient is already gone, see https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/message/63351418568891b35409035d9bfc8f6a Therefore USE=server became superfluous and was removed because packages like dev-db/mysql, dev-db/mariadb or dev-db/percona-server are now always server :) With this change, virtual/mysql became obsolete, see https://www.gentoo.org/support/news-items/2019-02-13-virtual-mysql-depenedency.html
dev-db/mysqltuner depends on virtual/mysql Shall I open a new bug?
Please fix this. The server USE should not be removed
