Pine (4.64-r1)has a dependnecy to uw-mailutils.

Notice the line:
[blocks B     ] <mail-client/pine-4.64-r1 (is blocking net-mail/uw-mailutils-2004g)

It tells you that an installed version of pine lesser than 4.64-r1 is blocking
uw-mailutils. This is most likely 4.64, which needs to be unmerged first. This
is a standard way to solve blocks.

See bug #105313 for reasons this block was introduced.
