Are you using the complete graph? | Code: | | $ emerge -uDUavt --with-bdeps=y --complete-graph @world |
This should resolve them all. Rebuilds caused by dev-libs/icu are normal and should work without problems. |

Then try | Code: | | # emerge -1avt ncurses:0/6 |
The "-1" option means "do not register in @world" |

The same

(and 24 more with the same problem)
NOTE: Use the '--verbose-conflicts' option to display parents omitted above
It may be possible to solve this problem by using package.mask to
prevent one of those packages from being selected. However, it is also
possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are
impossible to satisfy simultaneously. If such a conflict exists in
the dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can
not be installed simultaneously. You may want to try a larger value of
the --backtrack option, such as --backtrack=30, in order to see if
that will solve this conflict automatically.
For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man
page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook. |

Alright, here comes a last resort solution. Please try the other solutions suggested in this thread FIRST!
The dangerous step in this help is step 2. Enabling preserve-libs (step 1) won't do any harm to a Gentoo installation.
- Make sure you have preserve-libs enabled. (See our Wiki article about preserve-libs). If you don't want to enable it or don't know if it's really enabled, don't proceed! Otherwise you can break your whole Gentoo installation.
- Now run
| Code: | | emerge -uDav --with-bdeps=y --ignore-built-slot-operator-deps=y @world |
- After that don't forget to run
| Code: | | emerge -av @preserved-rebuild |
Now your system should be up-to-date again.
Really, this is nothing but a last resort solution. Please try any other possible solution first!

Same issue here. Not feeling brave enough to enable preserve-libs, so I just masked ncurses until this gets resolved...
| Code: |
$ cat /etc/portage/package.mask/miscellaneous
=sys-libs/ncurses-6.0-r1:0/6::gentoo
=sys-libs/ncurses-6.0:5/6::gentoo
=sys-libs/ncurses-5.9-r101:5::gentoo

Sorry. Just checked again. What I really did was the other slot: | Code: | | # emerge --oneshot --tree --verbose --ask ncurses:5/6 |
Then it gave me this. |

I got the same thing and a lot of broken thing. I'm currently running a 'emerge world -e' to fix everything that might be broken. |

Had same issue, did what @charles17 mentioned and fixed the problem.
| Code: | ~ # emerge --oneshot --tree --verbose --ask ncurses:5/6
|
Then,
| Code: | ~ # emerge -DuvN system world
|
Thanks

In my case I had to remove the old version and the reinstall with:
| Code: |
emerge --oneshot --tree --verbose --ask ncurses:5/6
|
No otherway to get it updated!
Does anybody know if this bug is tracked?
Cheers

I'm confronting this issue as well but can't claim I understand it very well. So let me ask: would I be correct in assuming that there is at stake here, ultimately, some issue that the Gentoo devs need to sort?
I initially just used the --exclude ncurses switch suggested earlier, which allowed me to update other parts of the system. But of course that seems to just defer the problem to a later point. Rather than flailing around with some of the other suggested solutions in this thread--which seem not to work in all instances in any case--I decided the best course of action at the moment would be to adopt the masking suggested in this thread by altrent. Of course that approach presumes that the slot conflict problem results from some high-level brokeness that the devs will be fixing at some point--after which, I would undo the mask and upgrade ncurses along with the rest of the system. Anyway, the key question in all this is whether my assumption that the slot conflict is an issue the devs will be needing to sort, is a more or less correct one. Input on that, anyone? |

When I do "emerge -vDu world", I'm not able to proceed due to the following.
| Code: | ...
[blocks B ] <sys-libs/ncurses-6:0 ("<sys-libs/ncurses-6:0" is blocking sys-libs/ncurses-5.9-r101)
...
(sys-libs/ncurses-5.9-r101:5/5::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
sys-libs/ncurses required by @selected
sys-libs/ncurses:5/5 required by (net-misc/dropbox-17.3.28:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
|
I've read every single post in this thread, but it's still not clear to me what I need to do to fix the problem. Would using "--emptytree" option help?

solamour ... try to update ncurses to the 0/6 slot (6.0-r1)
| Code: | | # emerge --oneshot --ask sys-libs/ncurses:0/6 |
If this fails then, as Polynomial-C suggested, try adding '--ignore-built-slot-operator-deps=y'.
Once ncurses is updated you can run 'emerge --ask @preserved-rebuild', and '--update @world'.

After updating ncurses, "emerge @preserved-rebuild" and "emerge -vu @world" went through OK. Another "emerge -vu @world" shows nothing to update. But "emerge -vDu @world" still shows "ncurses blocked" message and stops. Would it be worthwhile to try "--emptytree"?

solamour ... the exact error is generally preferable, I suspect you have something depending on another slot, or you need to do a '--depclean'. Please try the following:
| Code: | | # emerge --depclean --ask |
... if ncurses is selected then select 'yes', and then run 'emerge @preserved-rebuild' again.

I tried many different suggestions discussed here, but I kept getting "ncurses blocked" error message and couldn't proceed. I almost tried "--emptytree" as a last ditch effort (it's a big deal for me, because due to underpowered machine I have, it would take at least a week and a half to finish), but then I decided to check all the files in "/etc/portage/" once more.
Darned, there were a few packages with "~x86" in "/etc/portage/package.keywords", mostly old experimental ones that either became available since then (so I don't need "~x86" anymore, even though the stable version might not be the latest) or I just no longer need them at all. I commented out all "~x86" packages and removed them, and "ncurses blocked" message is gone. Thanks everyone for taking time to help.
