But now I have still more problems with blocking --
[blocks B ] <media-libs/gst-plugins-ugly-0.10.6-r1 (is blocking
media-libs/gstreamer-0.10.19)
[blocks B ] dev-util/gtk-doc-am (is blocking
dev-util/gtk-doc-1.8-r2)
I don't have either of the blocking packages on my system in any
version! And one of them doesnot have a < so there is something I
don't understand here.
