I understand. It was just a little confusing. Now I understand how it works. I tried to manually install that version and it wouldn't let me. I tried to emerge -u libglade and it said that there was no upgrade. Then, I tried to emerge it and it wanted to re-merge the installed one. Then I tried emerge libglade-0.17-r6 and it said that there was no such ebuild. So it will only do this to satisfy non-conflicting dependencies?
