Stable for HPPA. amd64 stable x86 stable libreoffice-bin prevents the update (amd64 stable): dev-libs/icu:0 (dev-libs/icu-51.1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) conflicts with =dev-libs/icu-49* required by (app-office/libreoffice-bin-3.6.4.3::gentoo, installed) (In reply to comment #4) > libreoffice-bin prevents the update (amd64 stable): > > dev-libs/icu:0 > > (dev-libs/icu-51.1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) conflicts with > =dev-libs/icu-49* required by > (app-office/libreoffice-bin-3.6.4.3::gentoo, installed) And the problem is? It just prevents the update until updated itself. ppc stable arm stable alpha stable (In reply to comment #5) > And the problem is? > > It just prevents the update until updated itself. The problem is that I cannot install a new openoffice-bin package on a *stable* system. That stabilization broke two important packages (at least) for me: openoffice and vmware (bug #465126). I understand that there is nothing we can do about vmware, blah blah blah. However, my stable system is broken. I can not open word documents and do my daily job even in a virtual environment. Sorry for the flame, but I feel it's important to let developers know how users feel sometimes.

The vmware thing is up to them. The libreoffice-bin itself forces icu downgrade itself. So it won't let you to keep broken environment. Or if you already had the libreoffice-bin on the system it even won't allow the icu upgrade to happen, unless you force it with --nodeps. Anyway if you are unable to install libreoffice-bin on stable then it is bug in portage dep solver and you should fill a bug, because it should handle the icu downgrade correctly. ia64 stable sparc stable ppc64 stable sh stable s390 stable.
