Oops, my thumb slipped before i had finished my message, so
continuing, I had tried
emerge --sync
emerge --depclean
revdep-rebuild
glsa-check -f all
The system seemed then to catch up with all of the inconsistencies.
Furthermore, the same has happened to me many times. Almost every
serious problem I have had has been solved in somewhat the same way.
I cling to these procedures like a blind man clings to a wall.
Sorry for the bodged message.
