Hi,

  First question, was it installed directly, or as a dependency for
something else? If directly, does it appear in the world file?
(/var/lib/portage/world) If it is a dependency, is the package that
depends on it, shown in the world file?

  If the answer to the second question above is "no" then try adding
it into the world file, then emerge -DuvatN world again.

Regards

Anthony
