Description Yu Wang 2004-11-18 06:30:56 UTC 
When I was trying to emerge expocity-2.6.1, it said the package is blocked by metacity-2.8.6.1.

OK, that's fine. Then I unmerged metacity and expocity was emerged fine.

Now when I do a emerge -pvuD world, I see the system still require metacity-2.8.6.1, that is, it is not blocked by expocity.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.unmerge metacity
2.emerge expocity
3.emerge -pvuD world

Actual Results:  
$ emerge  -pvuD world

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies ...done!
