A system where sys-power/upower has been masked and lxqt-powermanagement-0.7.0 been built with the original ebuild, then the ebuild tries to pull in upower and causes a chainreaction of other packages to want to be rebuilt due of the change of sys-power/upower-pm-utils to sys-power/upower This caused of a bad editing of the lxqt-base/lxqt-powermanagement-0.7.0 ebuild to have RDEPEND="${CDEPEND} sys-power/upower" that one should really have been: RDEPEND="${CDEPEND} upower? ( || ( >=sys-power/upower-0.9.23 sys-power/upower-pm-utils ) )"

Yes, this broken upower stuff with two packages in the tree. I will fix it, you are right.
The one thing: upower dependency should be non-conditional. Just "|| ( >=sys-power/upower-0.9.23 sys-power/upower-pm-utils )".

Aho Should be better now. I see no reason to use lxqt-base/lxqt-powermanagement without upower at all. If you have one, please, comment here, we will think about optional dependency.
