emerge -p xft

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[blocks B    ] >=x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r2 (from pkg
x11-libs/xft-2.0.1-r2)
[ebuild   R  ] x11-libs/xft-2.0.1-r2


Ok, I understand the message, honestly. xfree is blocking xft. So my
question is, can xft just be removed (there's no upgrade here, both are
the most recent version). I guess I'm lost as to what the problem is.
They're both installed already, so how could they be blocking one
another. This came up originally looking through an emerge -upD world.

I'm thinking perhaps xft got packaged officially into xfree maybe?

In 1968 it took the computing power of 2 C-64's to fly a rocket to the
moon. Now, in 1998 it takes the Power of a Pentium 200 to run Microsoft
Windows 95. Something must have gone wrong.
