Before I spend a lot of time backtracking all of this...
Q: Are either of these issues well-known pathologies of emerge?
Recently built a new Gentoo system by creating a new LV, extracting
stage3-amd64-openrc-20211205T170532Z.tar.xz and going through the
handbook stages to get a running sytem.
I then installed a variety of packages I have on the current system
like fonts, claws-mail.
Catch is that I cannot update the sytem:
# $emerge --update --fetchonly @world;
Calculating dependencies... done!
The following packages are causing rebuilds:
(x11-base/xorg-server-1.20.14:0/1.20.14::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
causes rebuilds for:
(x11-drivers/xf86-input-synaptics-1.9.1:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for
merge)
(x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev-2.10.6:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for
merge)
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy
">=dev-lang/python-exec-2:2/2=[python_targets_python2_7(-),python_targets_python3_6(-),-python_single_target_pypy(-),-python_single_target_pypy3(-),-python_single_target_python2_7(-),-python_single_target_python3_5(-),-python_single_target_python3_6(-),-python_single_target_python3_7(-)]".
(dependency required by "dev-python/pytest-runner-4.2::gentoo" [installed])
(dependency required by "@selected" [set])
(dependency required by "@world" [argument])
It seems that I have a recent enough python-exec installed: 2.4 >= 2.2.

I'm having a similar issue with firefox-bin:

But I also seem to have a recent markupsafe, if 2.0.1 >= 0.9.2??
