Read the portage man pages to gain an understanding of how portage works and what --sync updates (it will not fix your problem) Some package installed /usr/bin/quickpkg, now portage wants to install it. Presumably, the old package is now part of portage itself. Anyway, while that binary is there portage is not going to install itself. This is a good thing and you do not ever want to disable it. So sit quietly for a moment and figure out why you need to delete /usr/bin/quickpkg, then do so and emerge portage. This time it will work. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
SOLVED! Removing the link solves the problem. New portage will re-create the link. -- Joseph
