I'm fairly new to Gentoo so might not be the best to help here but from
my experience when two versions of one package are involved and it says
no parents arn't satisfied by others on several occasions specifying
that package explicitly on the command line has worked for me, I suspect
it might work in the other case here also as it's a virtual package
having an issue. It seems to get more fun when two "real" packages
decide they want different and mutually incompatible versions of a
package then sometimes masking a specified version temporarily seems to
work for some I had one recently that simply didn't want to resolve
until I decided enough was enough and opted not to bother with the one
package triggering a dependency that it liked and half the rest of the
system didn't.
