Similarly:

kde-base/libksane-4.4.5 does not seem to have been updated to kde-
base/libksane-4.6.2 ... as part of update world.

Shouldn't it have been?


Finally,  

kde-base/knetworkconf
    selected: 4.4.5 
   protected: none 
     omitted: none

Is asking to be removed, but there isn't a 4.6 version.  Has it been replaced 
by something else?
