I have TeXLive stable since 2014. This was the first time in years in which
the TeXLive update gave me blockers. It was trivially resolved by:
$ emerge -C $(equery l -if texlive | sed "s/^/=/g")
$ emerge -uDNvp @world
Of course you will not have LaTeX until the 2017 version gets installed,
but the blocker is resolved; I have the global latex USE flag, so that
happened automatically in my case, you may need to reemerge TeXLive
manually.
Regards.
