You have to think in the -u flag as the way to obtain the last stable
version, forgeting everything all.
Just use -U (as you know) to do an upgrade.

My glibc and gcc aren't in stable release yet but when I went to upgrade a
program it wanted to downgrade these. I can understand this behaviour when
using emerge -u world but it doesn't make sence IMHO for a specific program.
Not sure I can call it a bug, but it seems strange behaviour.

You might want to use -U; it's the upgrade-only flag.
Cheers...

I know how to solve the problem, but it isn't my point. My question is should
emerge -u someprogram be allowed to down grade other programs in the process
unless DEPEND < current_installed_versions are actually specificed in the
ebuild. No problem with world behaviour, there I believe it does the correct
thing.

I definately do not want to sound short or anything, but take a look at
the thread
[gentoo-dev] another snag: emerge -Up --deep gtkhtml
It takes up the same thing I think.... And I believe the final word has
been said there.
