Same problem for me: "dev-util/boost-build-1.56.0::gentoo (masked by: )"
*** Bug 555108 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I've hit the same bug, however I was given the following suggestion from the IRC channel, and it seems to have resolved it. Both boost & boos-build got updated, and they no longer cause trouble in the @world set. Here's what I've done: emerge -1 boost-build boost
Please, give us output of your: grep -r boost /usr/portage/profiles @portage guys: any ideas why reason is not printed?
Created attachment 407420 [details] Output of: grep -r boost /usr/portage/profiles Here's the requested info. Note that I have since solved the issue with the previously provided fix. Also, I performed a 'sync' twice since then. Also note that: grep -ir boost /etc/portage , doesn't return anything.
I'd like to mention, that 3 other machines I have never got the problem (they share the portage tree from a nfs share on the one that did get the issue). (There's 3 more I haven't try to update in a while, I don't know if they'll hit the issue or not yet). I also realised I never sent my: emerge --info , from the machine that got the issue: Portage 2.2.20 (python 2.7.9-final-0, default/linux/amd64/13.0, gcc-4.8.4, glibc-2.20-r2, 4.0.5-gentoo x86_64)

(In reply to Sergey Popov from comment #4) > @portage guys: any ideas why reason is not printed? It means that the dependency resolver masked it while backtracking, due to having trouble trying to satisfy its dependencies.
