The current ebuild of electrum 4.5.5 declares that it requires <dev-libs/libsecp256k1-0.4. However, electrum switched to libsecp256k1 0.4.0 with 4.5.0 [1]. And to libsecp256k1 0.4.1 with 4.5.3 [2]. I think we can relax the restriction and declare <dev-libs/libsecp256k1-0.5 instead. This also has the advantage that electrum and bitcoin-core are co-installable on a system, which is currently not possible to libsecp256k1 not being slotted. Side node: latest electrum development version uses libsecp256k1 0.5.0. 1: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/commit/e346d36851b0e6af9129ad31ef413b304df81cfb 2: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/commit/2ca180ddee9f8ba15255bc7314fea90a3954e534
