while gamin provide virtual/fam, sys-admin/fam doesnt do.

gamin blocked fam because they provide same library. like nautilus or so, gamin also work well.

but for package gnome-vfs, it depends on sys-admin/fam, not virtual/fam

of course, I see the comment in gnome-vfs-2.8.1.ebuild

# FIXME : make the fam dep a virtual

but I wannt to remind this for developer because gnome-2.8 has unmaked.:)

yeah hmm its all my stuff & i know about it, but just putting provides in ebuilds is not enough. Anyway, i get bit ticked off over these kind of reports of which im obviously more than aware.
