I never set either of these. Where did you override the defaults?
Do you have USE="-* ... ?

Please check the above.
It should be x11, not xll
(Eg. It reads C eleven)

Try 'wayland' instead of 'waylan'

Typos, see above.

And maybe sanitize your make.conf USE setting?

This should be

x11-libs/gtk+ X

Either you have a type in your package.use setting or something else is
unsetting X for this package. I'd start by looking at

grep -r X /etc/portage

[gentoo-user] puzzling behavior of USE flags with sys-apps/man-db

[Harry Putnam]

Setup: VBox vm running gentoo(amd64) guest on a win-10 (64bit) host
 Hardware: HP xw8600 - 2x Xeon  CPU X5450 @ 3.00GHz - 32 GB ram

On first attempt at emerging sys-apps/man-db (in came up in a world
update (including -N [--newuse])

emerge's output indicated that one could not have both berkdb and gmdb
so I put this in /etc/portage/package.use/man-db
sys-app/man-db berkdb -gmdb

That seemed to resolve that part of the problem

On next attempted emerge -va sys-apps/man-db

I started getting this:

root # emerge -vaDN sys-apps/man-db

  These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

  Calculating dependencies... done!

  !!! The ebuild selected to satisfy "x11-libs/gtk+:3" has unmet requirements.

  - x11-libs/gtk+-3.22.5::gentoo USE="introspection -X (-aqua) -broadway
  -cloudprint -colord -cups -examples -test -vim-syntax -wayland
  -xinerama" ABI_X86="64 -32 -x32"

  The following REQUIRED_USE flag constraints are unsatisfied: any-of
( aqua wayland X )

  The above constraints are a subset of the following complete
expression: any-of ( aqua wayland X ) xinerama? ( X )

Note the part: any-of (aqua wayland X)

Ok so I did echo "xll-libs/gtk+ X" >  /etc/portage/package.use/gtk+

Adding the X useflag to xll-libs/gtk+

 # cat /etc/portage/package.use/gtk+
  xll-libs/gtk+ X

But emerge appears not to go by its own stipulation

Same output and next attempt:

  These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

  Calculating dependencies... done!

  !!! The ebuild selected to satisfy "x11-libs/gtk+:3" has unmet
requirements.

  - x11-libs/gtk+-3.22.5::gentoo USE="introspection -X (-aqua) -broadway
  -cloudprint -colord -cups -examples -test -vim-syntax -wayland
  -xinerama" ABI_X86="64 -32 -x32"

  The following REQUIRED_USE flag constraints are unsatisfied: any-of
( aqua wayland X )

  The above constraints are a subset of the following complete
expression: any-of ( aqua wayland X ) xinerama? ( X )

No change..

if I insert `waylan' as use flag instead of X, same result and same
output.

I'm guessing I must be interpreting the emerge output wrong.  Can
anyone offer a clue here?
