[gentoo-user] package seems to block itself

[gentoo-user] package seems to block itself

[John covici]

Hi.  I seem to have a strange situation where a package block itself
or that is the way it seems.

If I try to do emerge gnupg this is what I get.
emerge gnupg
>>> cfg-update-1.8.0-r3 : No new packages have been emerged, checksum
>index OK...

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild     U ] dev-libs/libksba-0.9.15 [0.9.14] 481 kB
[ebuild  NS   ] app-crypt/gnupg-1.4.6  USE="X ldap nls readline zlib
-bindist -bzip2 -curl -ecc -idea (-selinux) -smartcard -static -usb"
LINGUAS="-ru" 0 kB
[ebuild     U ] app-crypt/gnupg-1.9.21 [1.9.20-r3] USE="X ldap nls
-gpg2-experimental (-selinux) -smartcard (-caps%)" 1,858 kB
[blocks B     ] app-crypt/gnupg (is blocking
app-crypt/gnupg-1.9.20-r3)

Total: 3 packages (2 upgrades, 1 in new slot, 1 block), Size of
downloads: 2,338 kB

!!! Error: The above package list contains packages which cannot be
    installed
!!!        at the same time on the same system.

Now if I do equery list on gnupg this is what I get.
[I--] [M ] app-crypt/gnupg-1.9.20-r3 (1.9)

Does this meanthat I already have  1.9.20-r3 on the system already?
And if so how do I resolve the block?

Any assistance would be appreciated.

It seems that the installed version (1.9.20-r3) blocks the new one (1.9.21).
it should work with emerge --unmerge gnupg and than emerge -av gnupg
I m not sure if it removes you gnupg setting, so its on you own risc.

Solution: emerge -C gnupg && emerge gnupg

That worked -- thanks guys.  Thanks for all your help on the inns and
outs of gentoo -- takes some getting used to, but its fine once you
do.
