After upgrading to gst-plugins-base-0.10.35, Totem still requires gst-plugins-x which still requires gst-plugins-base-0.10.32 causing a slotting error. Reproducible: Always
I'm seeing this too, as a result of a dependency on gst-plugins-meta. There is no ebuild for media-plugins/gst-plugins-x-0.10.35, hence the conflict. Copying the 0.10.32 ebuild seems to work, in that it emerges and keeps the dependency tree happy again.
After some days of patience I finally decided to rant about this, but the original poster was faster.. Problem confirmed What's so difficult in NOT breaking people's dependency trees on ~arch for several days? To my understanding ~arch means bleeding edge/unstable, NOT build broken! Especially since all it takes is to copy and commit the ebuild from the previous version - no code change!

Thats really wired: Yes, it takes only a copy into your local personal overlay and rename it 35. But the really scary for me: I am not able to purge gstreamer by disable the USE-flag, because of qt3-support, which is also not possible to unflag. But that is another bug I guess.
I can confirm that copying and renaming the ebuild works.
I'm not familiar with gstreamer. Unless there really is a version of the package named gst-plugins-x that you're renaming to then the proper resolution given that deps aren't specified directly in the ebuild must be to look into how either of gst-plugins-{base, 10}.eclass handles dependencies and create an exception. I'm debugging the eclasses right now but if anybody knows more than I it would be helpful to know how these are actually supposed to be put together. It looks like it tries to automatically make assumptions about version numbers which might be wrong in this case.
There are no wrong assumptions of version numbers in eclass/ebuild: It is just that the Gentoo Maintainer has forgotten the new version of gst-plugins-x. The source is automatically generated off another gst-plugins source tar.

Should be fixed for ~amd64 users.
Sorry, was just a missed repoman commit from moving forward with gst-plugins-xvideo in parallel and that being the last or something like that. ChangeLog entry and everything was in place, just not committed. So didn't notice before leaving completely offline for the whole weekend. Too bad no-one notified me on IRC on Friday. Fixed earlier today on some IRC poking, now e-mail backlog folder filtering caught up :)
