Hi,

My system says:
Code:
!!! The following installed packages are masked:
- dev-qt/qtwebkit-4.8.7::gentoo (masked by: package.mask)
/usr/portage/profiles/package.mask:
# Andreas Sturmlechner <asturm@gentoo.org> (16 Oct 2017)
# Qt4WebKit is ancient and is likely to have more holes
# in it than swiss cheese. Bug #620684


but...
Code:
# emerge -s qtwebkit
 
[ Results for search key : qtwebkit ]
Searching...

*  dev-qt/qtwebkit
      Latest version available: 5.7.1
      Latest version installed: 5.7.1
      Size of files: 34,472 KiB
      Homepage:      https://www.qt.io/
      Description:   WebKit rendering library for the Qt5 framework (deprecated)
      License:       || ( GPL-2 GPL-3 LGPL-3 ) FDL-1.3


So, where is this dev-qt/qtwebkit-4.8.7?

You're doing it wrong.

Code:
$ equery l -i qtwebkit

it looks to me that kdelibs-4.14.* depends on the qtwebkit:4

and the old kdelibs is needed by many a package on my system
with the kde use flag (e.g. vlc, libreoffice)

or just plain needed, as in kbibtex (important to me)

So - like in the vmware case - users may have to unmask manually

Nope. kdelibs just needs to be rebuilt.

Here the small list of remaining packages depending on qtwebkit (kdelibs is none of them): https://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=qtwebkit&list_id=3705136

thanks v. much for the advice - the rebuild had the bonus of
revealing some very outdated kde4 packages lurking in my
system :)

For check if you can secure uninstall this package version, and see the reverse dependencies,
run
Code:
emerge -av --depclean =dev-qt/qtwebkit-4.8.7
or directly the :4 slot
Code:
emerge -av --depclean dev-qt/qtwebkit:4
The output should help :)
