That is odd, I use emerge -cpv rather than qdepends and it shows many
reverse dependencies.

It may not be relevant, but you don't have the latest version installed
and it is recommended to run depclean after a full world update.

So it's odd to see that portage considers your system up to date.
Although this is consistent with portage considering glib-utils to be
unnecessary. Does
grep -r glib-utils /etc/portage
show anything. Is the package listed in the output from emerge -ep @world?
