Aah.  I get it.  Thanks.
Sorry for the noise.

Evolution depends on Mozilla and Mono depends on SeaMonkey.  Mono is
the "newer" (actively developed... sort of) component, also, from what
I've heard, SeaMonkey is based on a vastly newer version of Gecko.  So
I'm not sure how that fits with the above.

Anyway, I tried unmerging SeaMonkey and merging Mozilla, which went fine.
Doesn't help any with the blocker status, though.

So I'm stuck here.
Is it impossible to have Mono and Evolution installed at the same time?

(Same story with OpenSSH and pam-login.  OpenSSH wants shadow, and
pam-login refuses to merge alongside shadow.  I want both pam-login
and OpenSSH, but seems like I'll have to choose, right?)
