Description Carlo Marcelo Arenas Belon 2006-01-07 11:39:26 UTC

emerge should be able to resolve this block, as it is going to upgrade xpdf to >=3.01-r3 anyway clearing it, and so the future emerge unmerge for "=xpdf-3.01-r3" which is part of the emerge -U operation should made the currently required manual `emerge unmerge xpdf` not to be needed.

# emerge -DNvup ">=xpdf-3.01-r5"

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

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[blocks B     ] <app-text/xpdf-3.01-r4 (is blocking app-text/poppler-0.4.3-r4)
[ebuild  N    ] app-text/poppler-0.4.3-r4  -cairo +jpeg +zlib 806 kB 
[ebuild     U ] app-text/xpdf-3.01-r5 [3.01-r3] +X 0 kB
