libcdio and vcdimager are constantly upgraded/downgraded between two versions of the programs no matter how much time has passed since the last emerge -uDv world (I sync nightly). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge vcdimager libcdio 2. emerge -puDv world 3. emerge "=media-video/vcdimager-0.7.20" "=dev-libs/libcdio-0.64" Actual Results: even after following the suggestions of emerge on whether to downgrade or upgrade it would ask me to do the opposite the next time I checked to see what needed to be updated. Expected Results: I either upgrade or downgrade w/o emerge telling me to constantly switch between the two.

Created attachment 35393 [details] I've attached for reference my world file Not sure if this will be helpful, but this is the most current world file as of 14 July 2004 @ 0933 CST
Is this still existant? I do recall fixing some previous world downgrading issues. If not, please attach the result of: `emerge -uDp --tree world` and I'll see what's up.
The same root cause.. If anybody cares to reopen and hack this symptom out of the way for the time being, please feel free. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 13632 ***
