Hi,
I recommend you do "revdep-rebuild", it'll be less time consuming than
"emerge -e world". Both will result in system without broken
dependencies.
After you've solved this problem, by doing revdep-rebuild, you can use
my updating policy.
emerge --sync
emerge -uD world
emerge --depclean
revdep-rebuild
