Ever since I upgraded xorg-server to 1.5, I lost the ability to reinstall vnc-server (I had the problem from the very beginning, but I deleted vnc server and xorg-server, tried to emerge xorg-server on its own and worked fine, but when trying to emerge net-misc/vnc (server), I get the aforementioned block (B). The issue is very similar to https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=265124, but the emerged package is different. Couldn't find anything obvious on my own, sorry. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: $ sudo emerge net-misc/vnc Actual Results: These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!
