Since there is no 'D' it doesn't want to DOWNgrade.

I think this is one of the new features of portage-0.47.x.
gnome-panel 1.4 and 2.2 can live parallel, and now portage wants do 
_additionally_ install gnome-panel 1.4. It doesn't want to unmerge 2.2 since 
there is no 'D'. 

:-)

take care, have fun
