auddoula,

Code:
emerge --depclean
is dangerous
Run it with the -p option and review what it wants to do. If you are happy with what will be removed, run the command again without the -p.

Its bean a while now but --depclean removed glibc for me once, which was a verybadthing.

I did have a long pause, and ultimately went ahead I am afraid. It went through 1214 packages, now it is done.
I tried
Code:
 emerge -puvDN world

It appears there is nothing to update. However,

Code:
 gcc-config -l
 [1] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.6.3 *

It did remove nano, and one other program I usually use.... I don't care about nano since I usually use vi, but I wonder what else has been removed.

I tried to install a program, and I received an error:


One or more of these libraries
could not be found:
libstdc++ (including libstdc++6)
glibc
libgcc

I suspect the installer is not finding them.

Code:
 emerge -p glibc


Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild R ] sys-libs/glibc-2.15-r3

I also emerged libstdc++
