Hi,
         My core problem seems to be installed packages needed by the system
are blocking other packages. Here's the blocks:

("sys-libs/com_err" is blocking sys-libs/e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.3-r1)
("sys-libs/ss" is blocking sys-libs/e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.3-r1)
sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.41" is blocking sys-libs/e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.3-r1)

  ('ebuild', '/', 'sys-libs/e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.3-r1', 'merge') pulled in by
    >=sys-libs/e2fsprogs-libs-1.41.0 required by ('ebuild', '/',
'app-crypt/mit-krb5-1.6.3-r6', 'merge')

  ('installed', '/', 'sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.40.8', 'nomerge') pulled in by
    sys-fs/e2fsprogs required by world
    sys-fs/e2fsprogs required by system
    >=sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.34 required by ('installed', '/',
'sys-apps/util-linux-2.13.1.1', 'nomerge')


        Is something misconfigured?
Thanks.
Dave.
