Whenever you see this, "(no parents that ...)", you'll want to be aware
that there is backtracking going on and that in this case it failed to
find a solution through backtracking.

Exactly, the rest of your emerge output you have cut away actually
matters here; the part above could reveal that there perhaps might be a
blocker stopping the backtracking, the part under reveals that you need
to increase the backtracking value and try again (if no blocker).
