Because users, who have already upgraded to 4.0, had seen ewarn in pkg_pretend phase: => https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/net-news/rssguard/rssguard-4.0.3.ebuild?id=026dfe93d6c7e9a5e5c51dc94d0364bfbf3a6b03#n34

Since >=4.0 has been available for quite some time already (package.masked), people might've done the upgrade with the info available in pkg_postinst(). And then again this news item seems useless if you never had <4.0 installed anyway. You should receive a notification about this news item after you sync, before you world-update. I do prefer it like this, seems a bit clearer, but no strong opinions either way... -- juippis OpenPGP_signature Description: OpenPGP digital signature
