The problem is that it is trying to install the latest ~arch version of rstudio, which seems like a portage bug to me. This command works fine: emerge -pvDuN "=sci-mathematics/rstudio-0.98.490-r1" There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with rstudio here, only that portage is trying to install an unstable version of it on a stable system. I'd suggest logging a portage bug. -- Rich
