    # emerge sync

You should also run revdep-rebuild to rebuild any packages that depend on
older versions of zlib :

    # revdep-rebuild

Please note that any packages which have the zlib library compiled
statically will not show up using revdep-rebuild. You will need to locate
those packages manually and then remerge them.
