I am trying to install cb2bib from an overlay. The ebuild is on gentoo bugs. On this machine, over time, I have gotten qt to settle down, but now it's a mess. I have tried to install some dependencies with emerge -1 , but since I have too little understanding of that issue, didn't do that for all. Now qt-core has downgraded.
After installing (emerge -1) apps-text/poppler, then dev-libs/poppler 0.10.7 installed ok. So I'm starting to understand how that works. Can I also install x11-libs/qt-core-4.5.1 by oneshot, and then install x11-libs/4.5.2? This cyclical bunch of blocks has hit me many, many times, and I was glad to discover that at least part of the problem was surmountable.
