This probably was already discussed at length... But I keep waiting
for an automatic portage tree fix to this... Any idea if there will
be a fix, or will I need to take care of this manually? (Intel Core
Duo 32-bit system, FYI).

(Intel Core Duo 32-bit system, FYI). Apparently a later version of Portage will correct it, but if you're running 2.1.4.5 you're probably fixing it manually. That's been my experience anyway.

Seems completely unnecessary.

On the PC I am writing this, portage 2.2 had no trouble with this update. But on another, which was upgraded to portage 2.2 just before the world update, I got the blockers and had to solve this manually. No idea why. Wonko

It might be a good idea to remove the entries in the package database afterwards. -Erik -- v4sw5RUYhw2ln3pr5ck0ma2u7Lw3+2Xm0l6/7Gi2e2t3b6AKMen5+7a16s0Sr1p-5.62/-6.56g6OR

I did this emerge -f e2fsprogs e2fsprogs-libs emerge -C com_err ss but it still complained about blocks when I tried "emerge e2fsprogs" So I had to do emerge -C e2fsprogs emerge e2fsprogs This seems to work fine - no more blocks. Thank you, Denis

Or you can put buildyspkg into your FEATURES list in make.conf. Then, whenever a system package is merged, a binary package will be created. Wonko

The moment something fails after unmerging and before emerging the new packages, you will be very happy to have your old packages. You just put them pack in place and you have a running system again. It's a seatbelt. kh
