When googling for advice, you may want to include "site:gentoo.org"
in your terms, and maybe even "handbook".

When A is blocking B, the normal thing to do is to just unmerge A,
and then execute again the command that reported the blockage.
This is normally something like 'emerge -vaDu world'. If the
package you unmerged is still needed, i

I would think that the idea is that merging B (which is new or
updated) changed the system so that A can now be remerged. For
example perhaps the updated B has changed DEPEND and/or PROVIDE.
This makes sense (despite 1.5 years of Gentoo I still don't get all
subtle Portage features...my fault)

I don't believe the procedure you mentioned has ever been normal. If packages

I'm pretty confused.
1. did a quickpge utempter (for safety)
2. unmerged utempter
3. emerged libutempter
4. re-emerged utempter (from the portage tree not /usr/portage/packages)
Leave aside the fact it didn't work in this case...Why do you usually
try the (4) step? If two packages co

There was a blog entry on planet gentoo recently about this:

It looks like you have to unmerge utempter and then emerge libutempter and
