You have omitted some important information before this, but the problem
you have is that something is trying to pull in libgudev, which is
provided by systemd and well, hence the blocker. Packages should depend on
virtual/libgudev, which avoids this type of conflict. Run the update
again --tree to see just what is trying to install libgudev.> Total: 75 packages (64 upgrades, 1 downgrade, 7 new, 2 in new slots, 1 > reinstall), Size of downloads: 273,248 KiB Conflict: 3 blocks (3 > unsatisfied) In this situation, with so many packages being updated, I try to reduce the noise from portage by emerge --oneshot-ing anything in the list that is not related to the blockers, it makes the tree output much easier to work with. -- Neil Bothwick Some people are born mediocre, some people achieve mediocrity, and some people have mediocrity thrust upon them. - Joseph Heller, "Catch-22"
