emerge --depclean -p and make sure everything looks OK. If it does, remove the -p option. OK means it is not removing something you need. If it mentions removing some version of python, make sure you have ran python-updater. There may be others so look carefully. Also, I run revdep-rebuild -i afterwards just to make sure.
