Here is the output I am getting when running

[eklebanow]

Portage is complaining that I have slot conflicts when I try to emerge dev-qt/qtbase. Here is what I get when I run

Portage is telling you the solution. If you were allowed to proceed, you would create a USE flag conflict, so you cannot proceed.

what you said makes no sense to me

In that output seem like both accessibility and vulkan USE are involved.

To keep it simple, USE=accessibility, opengl, and vulkan should ideally either be enabled globally or not at all, try to cleanup any package.use entries (for all packages, not just qtbase) you have for these. Unfortunately portage is not very clear with its errors when USE need to "match" between packages (e.g. if USE=vulkan is set on qtbase, then it also needs to be set on qtdeclarative and vise-versa, likewise for qttools[vulkan] and some others).

If was using a desktop profile, USE="opengl vulkan" would be enabled by default globally and, if not switching, you may want to add to your global USE in make.conf (may possibly be required if you have a package that depend on these, esp. most likely need opengl set).

As for accessibility, only add if you actually need it (may possibly have set it on qtbase given recall kwin used to need it, but that requirement is gone, ...unless USE=accessibility is set on kwin given that needs to match too, aka qtbase[-accessibility] with kwin[-accessibility] is fine, but qtbase[accessibility] w/ kwin[-accessibility] is not -- qtwayland *also* need to match for one).

Can still use package.use for these if really wanted but you'll need to figure out what you're missing for packages to match.

Edit: also, after sorting out everything, do a normal emerge -uUDav @world rather than trying to emerge qtbase on its own
