That's because you are using the stupid -U; maybe you should take the warnings more seriously. ;p > *** Warning: --upgradeonly is a deprecated option in portage-2.0.51.22-r2 > *** and will likely be removed in a future version.
Reopen to dupe this.

Jakub, you show the very best attributes of someone supporting open software: ignorance and arrogance. The -U flag is not the problem. This problem only exists for valgrind and has never shown up before; it has only existed for the past few weeks. I will forgive you if you don't know how to read English and comprehend it. If you do, then you didn't bother reading what I wrote before you jumped to the conclusion that I must not know what I am doing. Nothing could be further from the truth. And yes, I do know the -U is deprecated. I would suggest you read the definition of deprecated. Obviously it has nothing to do with "It doesn't work right".
See Bug 13632. That said, --upgradeonly should not ever be used and will cause much more headaches then this bug. Don't use -U, it's evil.
