I just solved a perl block issue while doing

Code:
emerge -uDN a @world
efter

Code:
emerge --sync


Now I get:

Code:
[blocks B      ] kde-apps/konq-plugins ("kde-apps/konq-plugins" is blocking kde-apps/konqueror-16.12.3)
[blocks B      ] kde-apps/konqueror:4 ("kde-apps/konqueror:4" is blocking kde-apps/konqueror-16.12.3)
[blocks B      ] kde-apps/kfmclient:4 ("kde-apps/kfmclient:4" is blocking kde-apps/konqueror-16.12.3)

!!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been pulled
!!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict:

kde-apps/libkipi:5

  (kde-apps/libkipi-16.12.3:5/32::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
    >=kde-apps/libkipi-16.12.3:5= required by (kde-apps/gwenview-16.12.3:5/5::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
    ^^                 ^^^^^^^^^^                                                                                                                                                         
    (and 2 more with the same problem)


Is this due to old entries in the /var/lib/portage/world ?

The slot :4 entries I can se in the world file are:

Code:
# grep :4 /var/lib/portage/world
dev-qt/qtcore:4
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources:4.0.5


But they do not seem to be related to kde-apps/konq-plugins, kde-apps/konqueror:4 or kde-apps/kfmclient:4

What would be the best solution to the immediate problem/blocker, as of above?

Is there any permanent cure to blockers? I get them almost always when updating my system.

Yes, you're searching for the wrong thing. `grep kde-apps` should give better results.

OK thanks,


So in my case kde-apps/konq-plugins is the blocker

Code:
# grep kde-apps /var/lib/portage/world
kde-apps/akonadi
kde-apps/k3b
kde-apps/kde-dev-scripts
kde-apps/kde-meta
kde-apps/kdebase-meta
kde-apps/kdemultimedia-meta
kde-apps/kdepim-meta
kde-apps/kdepimlibs
kde-apps/kgpg
kde-apps/kleopatra
kde-apps/knotes
kde-apps/konq-plugins
kde-apps/konqueror
kde-apps/kwalletd
kde-apps/pykde4



and

Code:
emerge -av --deselect kde-apps/konq-plugins
>>> Removing kde-apps/konq-plugins from "world" favorites file...
Would you like to remove these packages from your world favorites? [Yes/No] y


and yes, this sloved the problem.

Is there any "automatic" way to prune the /var/lib/portage/world file before an update of the system? In my particular case it should be known that kde-apps/konq-plugins would block the update of konqueror.

Code:
emaint --fix world


does not seem to help in this instance.

No, because there is no 'automatic' way for Portage to be able to know what you want from it. konq-plugins may be a very important package to you, hence being in world file. The blocker message is Portage's way of telling you the conflict, anyway, and should have given you enough of a clue where to look for the solution.
