portage somehow thinks you have apr-utils:0 installed, or need to have it installed. Check the following: Is it in the world file? Check versions and SLOTS for apr-utils in /var/db/pkg/ Check the output of "eix -e apr-util" to see what exactly you have - keep in mind that a package without a SLOT is 0 by default. I suspect the devs bumped apr-util to SLOT=1 -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
