I did not "snip" any relevant information. I try to run: emerge --update -q --newuse --deep --with-bdeps=y --tree @system and there are no blockers showing up but a slot conflict. !!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been pulled !!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict: sys-apps/util-linux:0 (sys-apps/util-linux-2.28.2:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by (no parents that aren't satisfied by other packages in this slot) (sys-apps/util-linux-2.26.2:0/0::gentoo, installed) pulled in by >=sys-apps/util-linux-2.24.1-r3[abi_x86_32(-)?,abi_x86_64(-)?,abi_x86_x32(-)?,abi_mips_n32(-)?,abi_mips_n64(-)?,abi_mips_o32(-)?,abi_ppc_32(-)?,abi_ppc_64(-)?,abi_s390_32(-)?,abi_s390_64(-)?] required by (x11-libs/libSM-1.2.2-r1:0/0::gentoo, installed) !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=sys-libs/ncurses-5.2-r2:0/5=[unicode]" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - sys-libs/ncurses-5.9-r5::gentoo (masked by: ) (dependency required by "sys-apps/util-linux-2.26.2::gentoo" [installed]) (dependency required by "@__auto_slot_operator_replace_installed__" [argument]) I can not unmerge sys-apps/util-linux as I might damage the system. I've unmerge sys-libs/ncurses-6.0-r1 but it still giving me that error. -- Thelma
