portage-2.2.0_alpha43 wants to remerge gst-plugins-base over and over.
It gets correctly merged with a world update but still shows up with
every world update thereafter. The package is not in world, has a long
(20+) list of things that DEPEND on it, and no related USE flags have
changed:
[nomerge ] media-video/kmplayer-0.11.2c USE="cairo expat

[nomerge ] media-plugins/gst-plugins-xvideo-0.10.35
[ebuild R ] media-libs/gst-plugins-base-0.10.35 USE="orc (-
introspection) -nls" 0 kB
I get the same results using --newuse and --changed-use, and
downgrading portage to 2.2.0_alpha41 makes no difference either.
@preserved-rebuild, revdep-rebuild also make no difference.
Anyone else seeing this?
