[gentoo-user] Portage wants to install gcc-3-4-6, but system compiler is already 4.1.1

Hi,

after my last emerge -avuND world portage wants to install gcc-3.4.6:

> emerge -avuND world

I have switched to gcc-4.1.1, so why portage wants to install gcc-3.4.6?

Another strange thing is that emerge -p depclean wants to remove

but equery shows me:

> dev-libs/mpfr-2.2.0_p10
> sys-devel/gcc-4.1.1
> dev-python/pycrypto-2.0.1-r5

Does anybody know what this means?

Thank you in advance,

Daniel

Add --tree to see what is pulling in gcc-3.4.6.

Equery depends is broken.  It shows 'possible' dependancies, ignoring
whatever your current use flags are.  FEX pycrypto only depends on gmp
if you have the gmp useflag set, see "emerge -pv pycrypto".

sorry for the noise.

i must have removed the the gcc-4.1.1 entry in package.keywords by mistake.

gcc-4.1.1  has
 >=dev-libs/gmp-4.2.1
 >=dev-libs/mpfr-2.2.0_p10
as dependencies but not the stable gcc-3.4.6 which portage wants to 
install because of the missing keyword.
