Then something is wrong:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=464536
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=470554

for the first bug:
net-libs/ortp media-libs/mediastreamer and net-voip/linphone
are from the same upstream and actually have to be bumped and
stabilized TOGETHER, because it is very likely that they break
otherwise. And that's exactly what happened. The maintainer was
probably aware of it, but didn't respond, so arch testers went ahead
and did not test reverse deps.

for the second bug:
we now have a stable net-libs/libosip that cannot be installed when
you want to install stable net-libs/libeXosip... that is not a good
spot. Those libraries again should have been stabilized TOGETHER.

To me it seems one relies on the other to handle this and in the end
no one does?
