Yes, confusing. portage bug IMO. Filed one for you: https://bugs.gentoo.org/711474
But still this should have been possible for you to figure out. Confusing suggestion? Just have a look at the mentioned file. /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask Search for tintwizard and find this block: # Andreas Sturmlechner <[email protected]> (2020-02-26) # Unmaintained revdeps on dev-python/pygtk blocking its removal, py2-only # All masked for removal in 30 days. # Last release in 2011, bug #708106 app-cdr/gtkcdlabel # No plans upstream to port away from pygtk, suggested alternative dupeguru # not packaged in Gentoo, bug #708112 app-misc/fslint # Last release in 2012, bug #708124 app-text/keepnote # Last release in 2012, bug #708142 x11-misc/revelation # Last release in 2011, bug #708150 x11-misc/tintwizard # Last activity in 2013, bug #710162 sci-misc/pythoncad # Last release in 2013, bug #710164 sci-electronics/gresistor Another hint are those linked bug numbers. Just copy one, type "bugs.gentoo.org/" and paste the number. e.g. "bugs.gentoo.org/708112" which is the bug mentioned in the "dupeguru" line. And you see this issue is about fslint.
