The mednafen ebuild is quite out of date (https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/games-emulation/mednafen) I would propose to upgrade and set-as-stable mednafen to 0.9.48 and add a new ~amd64 for mednafen unstable (which is currently the de-facto standard version everybody uses anyway), for version 1.22.1. This way people can upgrade to latest stable without any risk of breaking things and the ones that want a more current experience can ~amd64 their accept_keywords and enjoy modern mednafen!
given how easily newer mednafen builds, i think it ought to be included as ~arch package (or masked).
(In reply to Marcin Kowalski from comment #1) > given how easily newer mednafen builds, i think it ought to be included as > ~arch package (or masked). I agree regarding the newer mednafen packages. 1.24.3 should be added to ~arch.

No need to waste time on bumping old versions, except if some revdep would depend on it, straight to stable is not allowed anyway. Just do 1.24.3, switch dependency to virtual/jack at the same time and make sure to file stabilisation in due time.
Additionally, games-emulation/mednaffe should depend on 1.24.3. It's possible to install it, but it refuses to work with 0.9.48. It does work with 1.24.3 though.
Last package to block bug 602898 now.
