- From what I can see, it appears that the problem may be that you need
one of the following packages installed for sys-power/apcupsd:

  >=sys-apps/util-linux-2.23[tty-helpers]
  <=sys-apps/sysvinit-2.88-r4

You probably currently have an older version of sysvinit installed,
which satisfies that dependency.  Portage wants to upgrade you to the
latest version of sysvinit, but you don't have a new-enough util-linux
installed with USE=tty-helpers, and you didn't tell portage it was
allowed to set that flag, so it doesn't know what you want to do about
the issue.

The easiest solution is probably to add "sys-apps/util-linux
tty-helpers" to your /etc/portage/package.use.
