Changelog doesn't say much about this. I have nano, vim, more and less
installed and vim is in world. I really don't feel like adding the other three
since they are already in system (and by definition a subset of world)
Anyone else seeing this?

Would you like to unmerge these packages? [Yes/No]
Some of that is likely legit but I got the same error you got looks
like. Sounds like we better mask this version of portage and maybe get
out a can of Raid.
