I think, this would be the wrong way., as they block each other already because of the RDEPEND. Else one would have to check the whole tree for a conflicting RDEPEND and then adding a whole bunch of blocks. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkofqzsACgkQ4UOg/zhYFuD4XQCeKUuemmNjWr7shtgsttc93sro 1U0An0SrsWexvLUmYtvzyjokpZiQyqSm =vvTO -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
