Hi. This is because you try to emerge not only linux-gazette-05 but also linux-gazette, which stands for the latest non-blocked version of linux-gazette in your portage tree (linux-gazette-113). Try issuing "emerge -pv =linux-gazette-05" (without the quotes).

Here's the output of "emerge -pv =linux-gazette-05" on my system:

# emerge -pv =linux-gazette-05

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild  N    ] app-doc/linux-gazette-base-113  1,504 kB 
[ebuild  N    ] app-doc/linux-gazette-01  1,346 kB 
[ebuild  N    ] app-doc/linux-gazette-05  0 kB 

Total size of downloads: 2,851 kB

As you can see, linux-gazette-113 is not in the list.
