Ok, so 0.8.1 is out now and I thought I'd upgrade to it.

Everything went great but when I do an 'emerge -puDv world' afterwards it gives me this:

Hmm, that means that something wasn't correct so I thought I better downgrade then, which I did. The problem is that when I do an 'emerge -puDv world' after downgrading to 0.8.0 portage tells me that I should upgrade to 0.8.1...

So the question is:
Do I do something wrong?
Do the ebuild guys do something wrong?
Has portage become schizophrenic? ;-)

gst 0.8.1 added, closing

@richard : probably portage. gstreamer is an intricate set of deps, i don't think the really crude approach of 'uD' will work here. Especially 'D' i consider broken by design.
