[gentoo-user] how to prevent portage from installing masked package

[John Covici]

Hi.  I am in a situation where portage wants to install a package
which I have masked.  Its  wants to do this
[ebuild     U #] x11-libs/gtk+-3.24.1:3::mv [3.22.30:3::gentoo]
but I want to keep the old one.  Why is this happening and how can I
preventthe install of the newer gtk+ which breaks some accessibility
features?

Thanks  in advance for any suggestions.
