If user already has proftpd emerge, user will not be able to update proftpd
unless he/she unmerges it first.

Example:
localhost conf.d # emerge --pretend --update proftpd

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[blocks B     ] <net-ftp/proftpd-1.2.10-r6 (is blocking net-ftp/ftpbase-0.00)
[ebuild  N    ] net-ftp/ftpbase-0.00
[ebuild     U ] net-ftp/proftpd-1.2.10-r7 [1.2.10-r1]


If user wants update proftpd they must manually unmerge proftpd first.
emerge --unmerge proftpd

Then he/she can safely update proftpd by emerging it again.

localhost conf.d # emerge --pretend proftpd

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N    ] net-ftp/ftpbase-0.00
[ebuild  N    ] net-ftp/proftpd-1.2.10-r7

of course you would not "--pretend" when updateing this package.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Already have proftpd emerged
2. emerge --pretend --update proftpd
3.

Actual Results:  
emerge refuses to updaet proftp as the old version of proftpd blocks the newer
ftpbase.

Expected Results:  
updated proftpd automaticly
