When you install media-video/mplayer (doesn't matter which of the 3 versions) with the 'doc' use flag on, it looks at the lines: doc? ( >=app-text/docbook-sgml-dtd-4.1.2 app-text/docbook-xml-dtd and decides to install the newest versions of app-text/docbook-sgml-dtd and app-text/docbook-xml-dtd ( app-text/docbook-sgml-dtd-4.4 and app-text/docbook-xml-dtd-4.4-r1 for x86). When I run 'emerge --depclean' afterwards it finds that I already have the following versions of app-text/docbook-sgml-dtd on my system : 4.1-r3 4.0-r3 3.0-r3 3.1-r3 4.2-r2 it sees that '4.2-r2' also answers '>=app-text/docbook-sgml-dtd-4.1.2' so it decides to remove app-text/docbook-sgml-dtd-4.4 again. it also finds other versions of app-text/docbook-xml-dtd so it decides to also remove app-text/docbook-xml-dtd-4.4-r1 But when i update my system (emerge -NDvua world && emerge --depclean -a (actually my update commands are longer but this has the same effect and keeps my description shorter)) mplayer reads the doc?-lines again and installs these packages again just for depclean to remove them again. And this cycle of install-just-to-remove actions happens everytime I run my update commands until the end of times... I really wonder why mplayer can't see that i already have versions of app-text/docbook-xml-dtd and app-text/docbook-sgml-dtd-4.4 that answer the doc?-lines...
