I to have quite a few qt packages.  I sync once a week so maybe this
makes some difference. However, when I see one upgrade, they all upgrade
at the same time. I have around 30 packages installed here and they tend
to all update together.  Do you have some setting somewhere that is
blocking some of the updates?  USE flag maybe?  One thing I've noticed,
if you add one to use unstable packages, you have to do them all.  It's
either all of them or none.  I don't think I've ever seen a time where
one can be out of sync with the others. 

It may help if you would post the errors you are getting and the
commands you are running to get them.  It's pretty much impossible to
help when we don't know what is failing and why.  Error messages help to
figure out what is failing.
