Trying to update world, I get the following: !!! Multiple versions within a single package slot have been !!! pulled into the dependency graph: media-video/ffmpeg:0 ('installed', '/', 'media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20080326', 'nomerge') pulled in by ('installed', '/', 'app-cdr/k3b-1.0.5-r2', 'nomerge') ('ebuild', '/', 'media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20070616-r20', 'merge') pulled in by ('installed', '/', 'media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.14', 'nomerge') ('installed', '/', 'media-libs/libquicktime-1.0.3', 'nomerge') ('installed', '/', 'media-sound/transkode-0.7', 'nomerge') (and 6 more) But this doesn't seem to be true: equery d ffmpeg [ Searching for packages depending on ffmpeg... ] app-cdr/k3b-1.0.5-r2 (ffmpeg? >=media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20080326) games-arcade/stepmania-3.9 (ffmpeg? >=media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20070330) media-libs/libquicktime-1.0.3 (ffmpeg? >=media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20070616) media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.14 (>=media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20070129) media-plugins/alsa-plugins-1.0.16 (ffmpeg? media-video/ffmpeg) media-sound/sox-14.0.1 (ffmpeg? media-video/ffmpeg) media-sound/transkode-0.7 (ffmpeg? media-video/ffmpeg) media-video/dvdrip-0.98.8-r2 (ffmpeg? media-video/ffmpeg) media-video/transcode-1.0.6 (>=media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20050226-r3) media-video/vlc-0.9.0_beta2 (ffmpeg? >=media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20070616-r3) net-libs/opal-2.2.11 (>=media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.7) There doesn't seem to be any dependency that actually needs the older version (I currently have the latest version installed). So I'm not sure how to clear/fix this problem. I'm marking this as major because it's preventing me from updating my system...

Disabling the ffmpeg useflag for alsa-plugins should resolve that, if I see it correctly, as at the moment alsa-plugins only supports the older ffmpeg version. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 218088 ***
You're right, this did fix it. I see, looking in the ebuild, that alsa-plugins only supports the older version: ffmpeg? ( <media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20080000 ) Why is equery not showing me this? Is it because equery is looking at the cached copies of ebuilds from when the packages were installed, and the ebuild itself was changed without a version bump? (If so, shouldn't this have been a -r bump?)
