Thanks Nikos, I am still confused if the tail is wagging the dog with this
one. It is a stable arch, so inkscape should stay stable and not asking me to
keyword it, especially as its reverse dependency is stable at a higher
version. Consequently, imagemagick would stay at the latest stable version
too.
Anyway, I removed imagemagick from the world file and now portage is no longer
asking for either inkscape or imagemagick to be emerged.
