media-gfx/freecad-0.21.2-r3 removal and replacement to qt6 only version conflicts with sci-physics/geant.

What's the rationale breaking rhe tree?
Is there any internal tool to prevent such a situation to occur?

As a result it prevents
Code:
emerge -uDUv world
to resolve for other portage tree upgrade.

Now
Code:
emerge -uDUv world --exclude ...

or cherry-picking from
Code:
eix-diff
can help to maintain.

Thks 4 ur attention, interest & support.

Technically, media-gfx/freecad still has the Qt5 option, I'm sure with all your experience you can unmask the USE flag.

Citation needed.

Nice heads-up for unmasking option.

However media-gfx/freecad could have kept qt5 as default with unmasked qt6 option.
It would have bring a better continuity to the upgrade process.

Getting rid of pyside2 was way overdue, that package been nothing but problems and it really had to go.

I do agree that the current vtk packaging for USE=qt5/qt6 (causing your issue) is pretty trash though, unfortunately nothing really been moving on that end... albeit I vaguely recall there was talk that the next version won't even support qt5 so.

Manually required
Code:
grep qt5 /etc/portage/{package.use,profile/package.use.mask}/media-gfx::freecad.conf
/etc/portage/package.use/media-gfx::freecad.conf:media-gfx/freecad qt5
/etc/portage/profile/package.use.mask/media-gfx::freecad.conf:media-gfx/freecad -qt5
Feasable, although painful.

Eventually even qt5 will be removed from ::gentoo.
Are you avoiding having both qt5 and qt6 installed at the same time?

What output led you to think anything is broken? Per Guidelines item #4, you should show both the command you ran and its full output.
