Can you see what needs libmpeg? It looks like a depend loop with other packages. Please paste what this command produces: grep libmpeg `find /var/db/pkg -name '*DEPEND'`
/var/db/pkg/media-libs/gst-plugins-0.6.2-r1/RDEPEND: mpeg?(>=media-libs/libmpeg2-0.3.1 ) /var/db/pkg/media-libs/gst-plugins-0.6.2-r1/DEPEND: mpeg?(>=media-libs/libmpeg2-0.3.1 ) /var/db/pkg/dev-libs/DirectFB-0.9.18/RDEPEND: mpeg?(media-libs/libmpeg3) /var/db/pkg/dev-libs/DirectFB-0.9.18/DEPEND: mpeg?(media-libs/libmpeg3) /var/db/pkg/media-video/transcode-0.6.6/RDEPEND: mpeg? (media-libs/libmpeg3) /var/db/pkg/media-video/transcode-0.6.6/DEPEND: mpeg? (media-libs/libmpeg3) some white space removed from above output. it seems, that problems have vanished now, when i checked the last time. so i find no point in letting this bug open. thank you.
I no longer have this problem either so I'll go ahead and close this bug. For historical purposes, I think the problem was caused by an old version of the media-libs/gst-plugins ebuild.
