emerge --depclean question

[SarahS93]

some time ago from the last emerge --depclean run.

emerge -a --depclean

Code: Select all

....

Calculating dependencies... done!
 * Dependencies could not be completely resolved due to
 * the following required packages not being installed:
 * 
 *   =dev-qt/qtxml-5.15.17* pulled in by:
 *     dev-qt/linguist-tools-5.15.17
 * 
 *   =dev-qt/qtcore-5.15.17*:5/5.15.17= pulled in by:
 *     dev-qt/qtwaylandscanner-5.15.17
 *

 *     dev-qt/linguist-tools-5.15.17

 *     virtual/perl-Unicode-Collate-1.310.0-r2

what should i do!?

have i to do uninstall some packages by hand?!

or should i run emerge --depclean (without -a)?!

Right after that output Portage should have printed:

Code: Select all

 * Have you forgotten to do a complete update prior to depclean? The
 * most comprehensive command for this purpose is as follows:
 * 
 *   emerge --update --newuse --deep --with-bdeps=y @world

Have you done that?
