This might be related to 199725. It only occurs if I unmask 2.16.0 or 2.16.1. Has a patch been missed? I am running an up to date, mostly ~amd64, install. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge --sync 2. emerge --pretend --update --deep --newuse world 3. Actual Results: These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

Correction masking does NOT solve the problem. Something wants >=dev-python/pygobject-2.15.3 and I have these versions masked too...
I am closing this as resolved. It was caused by a corrupt download of the ebuild for dev-python/pygtk-2.14.1
