current stable media-libs/mesa got a new useflag, which pulls in media-libs/libglvnd by default. This creates some nasty blockers: [blocks B ] app-eselect/eselect-opengl ("app-eselect/eselect-opengl" is blocking media-libs/mesa-19.1.8) [blocks B ] <media-libs/mesa-19.2.2 ("<media-libs/mesa-19.2.2" is blocking media-libs/libglvnd-1.3.0) Total: 575 packages (1 new, 574 reinstalls), Size of downloads: 2.196.846 KiB Conflict: 3 blocks (2 unsatisfied) * Error: The above package list contains packages which cannot be * installed at the same time on the same system.

emerge --info missing. > grep -R libglvnd profiles/ > profiles/base/use.stable.mask:libglvnd Seems perfectly fine to me.

But shouldn't all deps of a stable package be stable as well? Hence my confusion, why there isn't a media-libs/mesa-19.1.8-r1 with all of these changes, keeping the old stable.
The flag is stable-masked, hence there is no issue for stable users (otherwise first thing that would fail is CI).
hmm, I guess it can be closed if that's acceptable behavior.
