Thanks all.
Installing portage 2 and uninstalling some other package now I'm able to
update the system.

I've uninstalled xfce, firefox (??!) and kde.

Now the update seems to proceed. Then I'll reinstall everything.

However, I tried emerge belong on my system, but it gave me no output:

"
# equery belongs /usr/lib/libxfce4util.la
[ Searching for file(s) /usr/lib/libxfce4util.la in *... ]

"
