No, not experiencing this problem (for several reasons) but I seem to
recall hearing that dgs was removed from Portage not that long ago
(which would explain why it does not appear in your Portage tree).

In any case, you presumably emerged it sometime before that (possibly as
a dependency of something else), and X.org doesn't want it (possibly
because it's going to install its own version).

As you can see, I don't know what dgs is or does, but you should find
out if its something you need, because the way to solve the block is to
unmerge it, and then do the emerge -uD world again.



Yes, that's what I figured. I unmerged it, and now portage is
downloading/compiling the packages.
Well, don't even know why I'm doing this... my new computer is almost
finished, and once it's finished, I'll have to reinstall gentoo from
scratch again.
Thank you!



Is this new computer so different from the latter? I have already copied hard disks among three computers (all Pentium 3) with success, (just a kernel re-compile for one of them).


I think that it would be successful even if it were a P4 (which I plan to do next month). Just use the P3 compiled stuff and updates compiled to P4 will replace them in a few months.

Thanks to the cold / hotplug guys!!!!!!
