If that's the case, since I used --deep and --with-bdeps=y, shouldn't it still alert me to the change, with the same required USE change warning it gives me when I try either specifically emerging subversion or do an emerge --empty-tree @world? The following USE changes are necessary to proceed: (see "package.use" in the portage(5) man page for more details) # required by kde-base/oxygen-icons-4.12.49.9999::kde # required by kde-base/kbounce-4.12.49.9999::kde # required by @jed.kde.base.kdegames # required by @selected # required by @world (argument) >=dev-vcs/subversion-1.8.5 http Meanwhile, note that I discovered the update when I tried to merge a different live-kde package that requires subversion via the exact same kde4-base/kde4-functions/subversion eclass inheritance thread detailed above: $ emerge --with-bdeps=y --pretend --update --deep kde-base-artwork These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies ..... done!

[nothing] Actually, I believe it *IS* the required-use change, since being about thru filing this bug I decided to set HTTP in my USE flags in preparation for doing the merge manually, and once I did so, I again tried the above command and THIS time it wants to do the merge: $ emerge --with-bdeps=y --pretend --update --deep oxygen-icons These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies ..... done!

Please post your emerge --info and the output of "emerge --with-bdeps=y --pretend --update --deep oxygen-icons --debug" with the http flag disabled (your second last example).
Created attachment 369716 [details] emerge --info
Created attachment 369720 [details] emerge -puD --debug oxygen-icons Thanks. Sorry about forgetting --info at first. It has been so long since I filed a bug that actually needed it that... Anyway here's the debug, compressed to *.xz as bugzilla said it was too big uncompressed. However... 1) This is after I already did the subversion upgrade. If you need me to revert to the old version and run it again, I can. 2) This is a STDOUT redirect. But I still got a lot of on-screen output, presumably from STDERR. You didn't specify, do you need STDERR too? If so do you want /just/ it posted now, or would a combined file of both STDOUT/STDERR be more useful?

Closing this as I didn't get around to that revert and retry, and things are enough changed by now that I'm not sure it's relevant any longer. Resolved/worksforme since I manually did the upgrade.
