That's why 1) I use paludis, no seatbelts required. One can safely de-install com_err and ss _after_ upgrading e2fsprogs and e2fsprogs-libs. 2) I outlined to first emerge -f e2fsprogs e2fsprogs. It's known that wget will fail after unmerging com_err, so the new packages need to be fetched first. That's all. No need to make the thing more complicated than it is. Bye...
