[gentoo-dev] Downgrade from gnome 2.2 to gnome 1.4 with emerge -u world?

[Benjamin Podszun <ben@galactic-tales.de>]

Hi there.

emerge -up --deep world gives me

[ebuild    UD] gnome-base/gnome-panel-1.4.2-r2 [2.2.0.1-r1] 

I don't think that it's really a good idea to downgrade that far, right?
;) Any hints what could cause the problem?

Another thing quite funny is that everytime I run emerge -u wold portage
switches netpbm's version. Currently I get this:

[ebuild    UD] media-libs/netpbm-9.12-r4 [10.11.5] 

Just downgrading it and running emerge -up --deep world again turns the
versions and wants to upgrade netpbm back to the prior version. Any
suggestions on that?

Thanks for your help,
Ben

The complete output of my current emerge -up --deep world:

blafasel root # emerge -up --deep world

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
