It shouldn't be needed to remove the old xpdf version before 
updating/installing
poppler.

 !<app-text/xpdf-3.01-r4 is on app-text/poppler , and i get a blocking error
with it.

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[blocks B     ] <app-text/xpdf-3.01-r4 (is blocking 
app-text/poppler-0.4.3-r1)
[ebuild  N    ] app-text/poppler-0.4.3-r1 

Now if i change to >=app-text/xpdf-3.01-r4 , it works just fine.

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild     U ] app-text/xpdf-3.01-r4 [3.01-r3] 
[ebuild  N    ] app-text/poppler-0.4.3-r1 

I am not sure what it is happening here though... is the !< notation broken?

I also think we should stick to the >= notation instead, which it is 
cleaner imho.
