Got that part fixed what about this: >From emerge -vuDNpt system [...] [nomerge ] x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.2 [1.4.2] [nomerge ] x11-libs/libpciaccess-0.10.5 USE="-debug -minimal" [0] [blocks b ] <x11-base/xorg-server-1.5 ("<x11-base/xorg-server-1.5" is blocking x11-libs/libpciaccess-0.10.5) [ebuild U ] x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.2 [1.4.2] [ebuild N ] x11-libs/libpciaccess-0.10.5 USE="-debug [...] I may have trimmed that down too much .. there was a very long line of stuff after the xorg-server entries. I tried installed emerge -v x11-base/xorg-server and x11-libs/libpciaccess separately by themselves without the -uDN part but that fails too. Not too easy to see how to get around this.
