I thought you were on to something but the version is different, which
seems to make emerge behave different. I added -t this time. Maybe
that will help.

It seems lxde is pulling in something that is triggering a blocker.
Part of me thinks that doing a emerge -C util-linux and then doing the
upgrade will make it fix itself. Thing is, looking at some of the
commands that that package provides, unmerging that may not be a good
idea. What is also puzzling, it wants to downgrade util-linux, not
upgrade. It seems it wants to go back to using the eject package which
is currently not needed since util-linux provides the eject command. .
I seem to be going in circles here. I may have to keyword something to
get past this blocker. Sort of make it not want to downgrade util-linux.
Open to ideas. I'll post if I luck up on a solution.
