I enabled the abi_x86_32 flags globally. Today I tried to update to app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-baselibs-20131008-r17 and it failed as it conflicted with dev-libs/nettle. I fixed this problem by adding the following 4 lines to files/remove-native-20131008-r17: usr/lib32/libhogweed.so.2.5 usr/lib32/pkgconfig/hogweed.pc usr/lib32/libhogweed.so.2 usr/lib32/libhogweed.so Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable abi_x86_32 globally. Remove /usr/portage/profiles/default/linux/package.use.mask. 2. emerge app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-baselibs-20131008-r17 Actual Results: It conflicts with dev-libs/nettle due to both having the same four libraries Expected Results: It should not try to install those files since the abi_x86_32 flag is on and dev-libs/nettle with that flag will be merged instead. I classified this problem as minor as it doesn't hit normal users unless they work around the package.use.mask. However this is indeed a bug and please fix it. Thanks.
