Once upon a time I played a bit with "~x86". After having to reinstall
a couple times I quit except for specific packages. At any rate I
didn't need to do unstable/development so i'm pretty sure you
shouldn't. My USE variable is:
USE="sdk cups foomaticdb ppds usb X kde alsa dvd nls cjk ipv6 samba
ooo-kde network mysql"
I suppose you could try that for a bit and remove mysql, qt, mythtv and
then remerge mythtv which should catch them all. You might want to add
qt to the use variable as well to be on the safe side.
At any rate I'm about out of obvious ideas. On rare occasions I have
managed to mess up a gentoo installation enough that the only good way I
could think of to straighten out the mess was to compile the system from
scratch. Its usually not necessary, but occasionally wierd stuff
happens, although I somehow doubt that is required here..
