You are a gentleman and a scholar, sir!  The above 2 commands resolved the issue.
One last question - now that the circular dependency has been resolved & all packages emerged, is there a specific emerge command I should run? Such as "$ emerge --ask --verbose --update --newuse --deep @world" , etc. ?
And just a tiny little nitpick of your post, for the benefit of future readers of this thread -- your last command has a typo (missing one last 'z' at the end of harfbuzz: "harfbuz")  |

After sync for update my system I use emerge --ask --verbose --update --changed-use --deep @world, usually is better --changed-use instead of --newuse (see man emerge for more information)

toralf,
I don't think your solution works, the problem is that OP has changed abi_x86_32 in a second moment but there are some package compiled only with 64bit that need media-libs/harfbuzz[truetype] or media-libs/freetype[harfbuzz]

I am having the exact same problem on a fresh install of gentoo. When I change my profile
from [1] default/linux/amd64/17.1 (stable)
to [5] default/linux/amd64/17.1/desktop (stable)
and run
| Code: |
emerge --ask --verbose --update --deep --newuse @world
|
I get
| Code: | * Error: circular dependencies:
(media-libs/harfbuzz-2.8.1:0/0.9.18::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) depends on
(media-libs/freetype-2.10.4:2/2::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime_slot_op)
(media-libs/harfbuzz-2.8.1:0/0.9.18::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)
* Note that circular dependencies can often be avoided by temporarily
* disabling USE flags that trigger optional dependencies. |

I was able the fix the circular dependencies by installing grub as grub installs freetype.
| Code: |
[ebuild N ] media-libs/libpng-1.6.37-r2:0/16::gentoo USE="-apng -static-libs" ABI_X86="(64) -32 (-x32)" CPU_FLAGS_X86="sse" 989 KiB
[ebuild N ] media-libs/freetype-2.10.4:2::gentoo USE="adobe-cff bzip2 cleartype_hinting png -X -bindist -brotli -debug -doc -fontforge -harfbuzz (-infinality) -static-libs -utils" ABI_X86="(64) -32 (-x32)" 2,360 KiB
[ebuild N ] sys-libs/efivar-37:0/1::gentoo 107 KiB
[ebuild N ] sys-boot/efibootmgr-17::gentoo 41 KiB
[ebuild N ] sys-boot/grub-2.06:2/2.06::gentoo USE="fonts nls themes -device-mapper -doc -efiemu -libzfs -mount -sdl (-test) -truetype" GRUB_PLATFORMS="efi-64 -coreboot -efi-32 -emu -ieee1275 -loongson -multiboot -pc -qemu -qemu-mips -uboot -xen -xen-32 -xen-pvh" 8,140 KiB

Strange, as this has never happened before. |

Nice, I slightly reduced the # of masked flags in the meanwhile, this is currently sufficient for the tinderbox: | Code: | | USE="-X -cairo -fontconfig -graphite -harfbuzz -icu -png -truetype" emerge -u media-libs/freetype media-libs/harfbuzz |

I'm having the same issue. I was able to get around it initially by using these tips, but now I'm emerging packages like wine and ffmpeg that want to rebuild harfbuzz and freetype with ABI_X86="32" and for the life of me I can't get it to work. Is there a patch or something for this? This is crazy.

Had the same issue.
Solved by removing both conflicting packages (freetype and harfbuzz)
| Code: | | emerge --unmerge freetype harfbuzz |
and the emerging them again
| Code: | | emerge freetype harfbuzz |
No need to change flags (neither with USE= nor with package.use). It will lead to problems with other packages like ffmpeg, which depends on specific features enabled by these flags

For me worked:
| Code: | | emerge -C freetype harfbuzz |
| Code: | | USE="-truetype -harfbuzz" emerge -1 freetype harfbuzz |
| Code: | | emerge -1 freetype harfbuzz |

Had the same here, but only on 2 of 4 machines. For me changing package.use according to the output of "emerge -uav freetype"
| Code: |
It might be possible to solve this slot collision
by applying all of the following changes:
- media-libs/freetype-2.10.4 (Change USE: +harfbuzz)
|
worked.
However I have to keep this entry in package.use for the moment, removing it after emerging freetype results in the same error. |

I forgot to mention:
the need for setting "+harfbuzz" seems strange to me, because it should be already set?
| Code: |
~ # equery depends freetype
* These packages depend on freetype:
[...]
x11-libs/pango-1.48.7 (>=media-libs/freetype-2.5.0.1:2[harfbuzz,png,abi_x86_32(-)?,abi_x86_64(-)?,abi_x86_x32(-)?,abi_mips_n32(-)?,abi_mips_n64(-)?,abi_mips_o32(-)?,abi_s390_32(-)?,abi_s390_64(-)?])
|
So i would expect the installed package "x11-libs/pango" should force the +harfbuzz use flag for freetype. |

I finally got my situation resolved , but I tried so many things I'm not sure which one actually did it. I'm currently forcing freetype and harfbuzz on each other and abi_x86_32 on both. It seems to be happy for the moment.

For new installs this works for me
| Code: |
emerge --sync
eselect profile set 1
env-update
USE="-truetype" emerge -1av freetype harfbuzz
USE="truetype harfbuzz" emerge -1av freetype harfbuzz
echo "media-libs/freetype harfbuzz" > /etc/portage/package.use/freetype
eselect profile set <some-desktop>
env-update
emerge -uDNav @world

In a Fresh install media-gfx/graphite2 and dev-libs/glib give some error, I did emerge them whit the command
I'm not sure if it's necessary the USE FLAG but this is what I did
| Code: | | USE="-harfbuzz" emerge -1 media-gfx/graphite2 |
and
| Code: | | USE="-harfbuzz" emerge -1 dev-libs/glib |
They complete and the rest is easy

This command is work only if you have exactly same situation (error, use flags eanbled,..) as OP.

Hi, does anyone know if this is considered a bug and will be fixed in the portage tree?
There are workarounds available (in fact on my own machine I have had the same issue and fixed it), but when building using the gentoo/stage3 docker images, it would mean I need to apply these fixes every time on the images before it can be used to build something that depends on freetype or harfbuzz. |

No isn't a bug but a problem of dependencies caused by use flag settings, so you should compile package(s) first time without some use flags for to be able to then compile it with all the desired use flags.

USE="-gtk -harfbuzz" emerge media-libs/harfbuzz work for me
next add "media-libs/freetype harfbuzz" to /etc/portage/package.use

Let me just express my humble gratitude towards you for making the above quoted post.
I have not been using Gentoo for about ten years or so, and around a month ago I started a fresh install to catch up and have some genuine FUN with computing. There has been no fun what so ever up until today:
I got completely stuck at the circular dependencies (harfbuzz, freetype). Reinstalled my system several times as I had no idea what went wrong all the time.
This morning - in desperation, anger, despair, torn out hair and clothes, crying - I stumbled on your post.
Lets just say you made - not only my day - but a whole month. Thank you very much. |

Or in my case with more use flags enabled I had to do:
| Code: | | USE="-harfbuzz" emerge -1 dev-libs/icu dev-libs/libffi virtual/libintl app-arch/bzip2 virtual/libiconv media-libs/libpng dev-libs/libpcre media-libs/freetype media-gfx/graphite2 sys-apps/util-linux dev-libs/glib media-libs/harfbuzz --nodeps |
