I have masked >gtk+-3.18.9 due to issues with meld on my system [1],[2].
Today's update wants me to unmask it [3]. Checking the ebuilds, none of
the packages emerge lists should need a gtk+ higher than gtk+-3.18.9;
for example the most probable candidate, gcr-3.20.,0 depends only on:
COMMON_DEPEND="
>=app-crypt/p11-kit-0.19
>=dev-libs/glib-2.38:2
>=dev-libs/libgcrypt-1.2.2:0=
>=dev-libs/libtasn1-1:=
>=sys-apps/dbus-1
gtk? ( >=x11-libs/gtk+-3.12:3[X,introspection?] )
introspection? ( >=dev-libs/gobject-introspection-1.34:= )
Also none of the installed packages needs it [4].
Any way I can convince emerge to proceed with the update without
unmasking gtk+-3.20.x?
thanks,
raffaele

[2] with gtk+-3.20.x the tabs and buttons in meld are drawn without the
surrounding border line thus it's unusable. I opened a bug on gnome but
it was rightly dismissed as a packaging system issue
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769699).
