New versions of portage use some tests to make sure all is right
before merging the app. It's called the "strict" feature of portage.
This is very good for those with network and the possibility to do a
--sync once in a while, but I found it problematic in networkless
installs (some of my protected servers), so I added FEATURES="-strict"
to make.conf, its not a good policy, but it works (again, this
installs are pretty solid and will not be updated in a while, so, its
not recommended for desktop installs). As someone pointed, a emerge
sync will probably solve it.
