Created attachment 358780 [details] emerge --info output net-print/hplip-3.12.10a ebuild is not any more working since the virtualization of python-imaging, and the unstable versions implies currently a 30s wait on uevents on boot. The scanner use key call dev-python/imaging, but the fax use key call reportlab which call virtual/python-imaging-2. To avoid that, I dropped the fax use key and applied the following hack from bug 401009: echo "virtual/python-imaging -python_targets_python3_2" >> /etc/portage/package.use/package.use It was OK until I tried to get back media-gfx/cropgui and got again the dreadful: # emerge -pv cropgui These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

You are mixing stable and unstable ebuilds. You're admitting that it's a hack. What should we do about it? *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 401009 ***
