Have been getting the following on -Dupv --newuse world for a few days: [blocks B ] <=app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-xlibs-1.2-r3 (from pkg x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.1.904) Finally tried now to unmerge it, then did a Du world and it installed the same version again. However, it now complains about the block again. Bug doesn't seem to have a major effect on functionality, only problem I connect to this is that I now can't do a proper -Du world. Cedega 4.2.1 segfaults but I don't see how this is connected, posted in transgaming on that. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -aC emul-linux-x86-xlibs 2. emerge -Duav --newuse world 3. emerge -Dupv --newuse world Actual Results: Portage gave the block as written above Expected Results: Either a normally (ie. no B) installed emul-linux-x86-xlibs or the B reported before merging the package. I installed using a Stage 1 on 3 NPTL guide from Forums/Docu Last emerge sync && emerge -Dupv --newuse world a few hours ago, last restart before that.

x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.1.904 is ~amd64, it requires changes made in the current unstable app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-xlibs-1.2-r6. It is just a problem mixing stable and unstable packages in some instances. Just add app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-xlibs to /etc/portage/package.keywords too and all should be well again.
Shouldn't emul-linux-x86-xlibs-1.2-r6 then be a dependency of xorg-x11-6.8.1.904 under the conditions where this applies? The fix works though, I reopened because of the dep thing, hope that's right
Yes, app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-xlibs-1.2-r6 should be a required dependency for xorg-x11-6.8.1.90 and xorg-x11-6.8.2. I required it for the 6.8.2 version of xorg.
You broke the update of the AMD64 stable: emerge -auD world These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies ...done!

1.2-r7 is stable, so the bug doesn't apply anymore.
