The dependency for quod libet, as of version 0.20.1-r1, was updated to >=dev-python/pyvorbis-1.4-r1. That update reflects a fix made to correct a double free issue (see ChangeLog for QL). mutagen, a direct dependency of quod libet, depends on <dev-python/pyvorbis-1.4, which causes one of those fun up/downgrade toggles when emerge is called with the --deep switch. Mutagen compiles and functions as expected with pyvorbis-1.4-r1 # emerge --info Portage 2.1_pre10-r5 (default-linux/amd64/2006.0, gcc-3.4.6, glibc-2.4-r2, 2.6.16-gentoo-r4 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.16-gentoo-r4 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+ Gentoo Base System version 1.12.0_pre19 dev-lang/python: 2.4.3-r1 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: [Not Present] dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r2 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=k8 -pipe -O2" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/eselect/compiler /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=k8 -pipe -O2" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distlocks metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="amd64 X a52 aac alsa apache2 avi berkdb bitmap-fonts blas cdparanoia cdr cli crypt cups dbus dri dvd dvdr dvdread eds emboss encode fam ffmpeg firefox flac foomaticdb fortran gdbm gif glut gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 hal imlib ipv6 isdnlog jpeg logrotate lzw lzw-tiff mad mono mp3 mpeg musepack mysql ncurses nls nptl nptlonly ogg opengl oss pam pcre pdf pdflib perl php png ppds pppd python quicktime readline reflection sdl session spell spl ssl svg tcpd theora tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb userlocales vorbis xine xorg xpm xv xvid zlib elibc_glibc input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse kernel_linux userland_GNU video_cards_nvidia" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
The pyvorbis DEPEND in mutagen has been updated. Thanks for pointing this out.
