Excuse the top-posting; if I try inter-post between all those blockers you'll never find what I reply :-)
First I recommend to sync your tree again, just in case you got yours between two Qt commits and things are not consistent anymore. You seem to have at least two things happening: python-exec qt To deal with the first, try remove python-exec and re-merge it (but quickpkg a backup first) quickpkg python-exec && emerge -avC python-exec && emerge -av1 python-exec This is untested so I don't know if it will bork. If it does, you have a quickpkg that you can untar and get things back. Onto Qt: I've had similar things over the years and it always made little sense. Eventually I removed all references to Qt from world, sets in use and USE then let portage figure out what to do. Rationale: Qt is a basic toolkit that stuff uses, so stuff should decide what it needs and not me. I want the stuff and if that requires Qt then just let portage give me what is required. This will show all references to Qt to consider: grep -ir /qt /etc/portage/ /var/lib/portage/world* In your case, I see portage wants to downgrade several Qt packages due to fsrunner, but there's nothing in that ebuild or the kde4-base eclass it inherits, which leads me to believe you might have a config setting somewhere that wants to exclude latest Qt somehow. Portage and the tree by itself isn't doing it, here's my output: $ emerge -pvt fsrunner These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order: Calculating dependencies... done!
