There's no obvious reason why portage should select
media-libs/gst-plugins-bad-1.10.5, and gst-plugins has updated cleanly
for me for months now. By I'm on ~arch and your packages are arch. Can
we re-check the obvious?
emerge --sync up to date?
emerge world done? Often times I find a partial update fails whereas all
of world succeeds, it checks all the deps and misses none
Any mixture of ~arch packages related to pidgin, farstream, gst-plugins?
Any of those packages keyworded/masked/unmasked on your system?
and finally, to see what might want gst-plugins-bad:
equery depends gst-plugins-bad
