I was trying to update my system when I got a bunch of blocked packages. Fortunately, someone else had the same problem (why isn't this corrected automatically???) and got an answer, so I started unmerging all the blocking packages. Then I got a bunch of warnings about illegal inheritance. Can someone tell me what they mean and what I should do about them?

Code:

>>> Unmerging x11-themes/gtk-engines-thinice-2.0.2-r1...
No package files given... Grabbing a set.

QA Notice: ECLASS 'gtk-engines2' inherited illegally in x11-themes/gtk-engines-thinice-2.0.2-r1


QA Notice: ECLASS 'eutils' inherited illegally in x11-themes/gtk-engines-thinice-2.0.2-r1

...
Code:

>>> Unmerging gnome-extra/gnome-vfs-extras-0.99.11...
No package files given... Grabbing a set.

QA Notice: ECLASS 'gnome2' inherited illegally in gnome-extra/gnome-vfs-extras-0.99.11


QA Notice: ECLASS 'libtool' inherited illegally in gnome-extra/gnome-vfs-extras-0.99.11


QA Notice: ECLASS 'gnome.org' inherited illegally in gnome-extra/gnome-vfs-extras-0.99.11


QA Notice: ECLASS 'debug' inherited illegally in gnome-extra/gnome-vfs-extras-0.99.11


QA Notice: ECLASS 'fdo-mime' inherited illegally in gnome-extra/gnome-vfs-extras-0.99.11

...
Code:

>>> Unmerging gnome-extra/acme-2.4.2-r1...
No package files given... Grabbing a set.

a developer wrote: "In general you can simply ignore the 'QA Notice' stuff. It's a hint for developers to improve something in the ebuild (or a hint for portage devs that portage is playing stupid again)."
