[gentoo-user] Portage somwhat out of whack?

[Kevin O'Gorman]

I was following the recent thread about libpng oscillating between versions,
and was preparing to apply the fix that was reported to work, but got stopped
when suddenly there's more, probably related to the fact I "emerge sync" in
a cron job.  I'm going to stop that for a while.

Anyway, now there are more packages wanting to downgrade, including
portage itself.  This cannot be good.  I have no clue how to unravel this,
and I'm just gonna ignore it for a while.

... done!

Please add --tree to the emerge command and show the command with full output.
