eselect news list

Then read the item titled ffmpeg/libav conflict management.

The perl issue has been covered several times already, including once a
few days ago. Remove all references to perl-core from your world file

emerge --deselect y $(qlist -IC perl-core)

The trouble with the world is that everybody in it is three drinks behind.

Do you have the perl-core packages in your world file? They shouldn't be
there. If you remove them emerge will figure out how to update them.

Regarding libav trying to replace ffmpeg, it's an annoying problem that
pops up now and then. It could be that a package you are trying to
install requires some USE flags for ffmpeg that aren't set, so it's
trying to replace it with libav with the USE flags it requires. Not very
intuitive...

Output from `emerge -pvuDN @world` would be better, it'll be easier to
sort out what ffmpeg needs.

Try perl-cleaner --all and add -libav to your system wide USE flags. That 
usually fixes it for me.

If it doesnt unmerge all the perl-core packages and run emerge -vauDN @world 
again.
