After a recent update of dev-libs/libffi from version 3.0.10 to 3.0.11
the ebuild log suggests to run:

  # revdep-rebuild --library '/usr/lib64/libffi.so.5'

and once finished running revdep-rebuild, it should be safe to
delete the old libraries, like so:

  # rm '/usr/lib64/libffi.so.5'

However by querying:

equery b /usr/lib/libffi.so.5
 * Searching for /usr/lib/libffi.so.5 ...
dev-libs/libffi-3.0.11 (/usr/lib64/libffi.so.5)

we see that /usr/lib64/libffi.so.5 is reported as belonging to
dev-libs/libffi-3.0.11. Is that normal?
