Well, It is getting more confusing....
I can't seem to unmerge everything for xfce4 in order to start over.

In typing this command, I get:

iDeq ~ # emerge -pv xfce4-extras

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Total: 33 packages (13 downgrades, 20 new, 12 blocks), Size of downloads: 0
kB

When I try to unmerge the blocks, it says they can't be found.
What is the best way to clean up and unmerge all of xfce4 and start over?
