Hi, I'm trying to upgrade KDE Apps from 21.08.3 to 21.12.3 and qt from 5.15.2-r14 to 5.15.3. In general I agree with microai (https://bugs.gentoo.org/836680). Maybe not with the way he wrote it but upgrading KDE and qt is a pain every little time. Portage seems unable to cope with dependency computation. Last time I remove whole KDE and qt to proceed with an upgrade. Using --emptytree seems to be valid resolution but for me it is an overkill. Also emerge -avuO1 $(eix -Iu#) do the job but I find it risky. Is there any way to make the update go smoothly?

I think you have some problems with your system. You can start with: 1) * IMPORTANT: 17 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'. * Use eselect news read to view new items. -> https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/Base#Reading_news_items 2) !!!

Go to irc or forums for help. There is no general problem here, but several local ones as already pointed out.
Please follow the outline I described in bug 840206 and ideally go to a user support forum (like IRC) where we can walk through it if needed.

A few things which -pev @world --backtrack=0 showed up which led to KDE and Qt not being able to rebuild.
