Unfortunately mine is not as easy:
==================================
x11-libs/qt:4

  ('ebuild', '/', 'x11-libs/qt-4.3.3', 'merge') pulled in by
    =x11-libs/qt-4.3*:4 required by ('installed', '/',
'media-video/vlc-0.9.8a', 'nomerge')
    =x11-libs/qt-4.3*:4 required by ('installed', '/',
'net-im/skype-2.0.0.63', 'nomerge')
    =x11-libs/qt-4.3*:4 required by ('ebuild', '/',
'x11-libs/qscintilla-2.3.2', 'merge')
    (and 3 more)

  ('ebuild', '/', 'x11-libs/qt-4.4.2', 'merge') pulled in by
    >=x11-libs/qt-4.3:4 required by ('installed', '/',
'app-text/poppler-bindings-0.8.7', 'nomerge')
    =x11-libs/qt-4* required by ('installed', '/',
'net-wireless/wpa_supplicant-0.5.7', 'nomerge')
    x11-libs/qt required by world
==================================

I am running vlc-0.9.8a which is the only one available.  How could I
go about this?
