 * Error: circular dependencies:

(dev-lang/go-1.27.2:0/1.27.2::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) depends on
 (dev-lang/go-1.27.2:0/1.27.2::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)

 * Note that circular dependencies can often be avoided by temporarily
 * disabling USE flags that trigger optional dependencies.

The following USE changes are necessary to proceed:
 (see "package.use" in the portage(5) man page for more details)
# required by app-containers/apptainer-1.5.4::gentoo[-suid]
# required by =app-containers/apptainer-1.5.4 (argument)

 * In order to avoid wasting time, backtracking has terminated early
 * due to the above autounmask change(s). The --autounmask-backtrack=y
 * option can be used to force further backtracking, but there is no
 * guarantee that it will produce a solution.
