xpdf-3.01-r4 blocking poppler EVEN when no version of xpf is installed. For an example, when I run emerge world -uvaD I get Calculating world dependencies ...done! [blocks B ] <app-text/xpdf-3.01-r4 (is blocking app-text/poppler-0.4.3-r1) [ebuild N ] app-text/xpdf-3.01-r3 +X +motif 0 kB BUT xpdf is not installed, attempts to uninstall it show, emerge -C xpdf >>> unmerge: No packages selected for removal.one! [blocks B ] <app-text/xpdf-3.01-r4 (is blocking app-text/poppler-0.4.3-r1) [ebuild N ] app-text/xpdf-3.01-r3 +X +motif 0 kB Also note that if app-text/xpdf-3.01-r3 is installed the blocker still mentions version 3.01-r4 (which is not installed). In the app-text/xpdf-3.01-r4 ebuild in the RDEPEND section there is: !=app-text/xpdf-3.01-r4" which is responsible for the blocking message, however is it meant to have a version like that? (note the < sign in the blocking message as well) maybe that's why it's blocking incorrectly as in my case i don't have xpdf installed in the first place. I've rated it critical, it's stopping the build process dead in its track
