Nit: You probably want <sys-devel/gcc-5, not <=sys-devel/gcc-5. |

Portage will flag the news item as relevant as soon as it sees gcc-4* |
| 16 |
installed. If a future depclean removes that version, I believe |
| 17 |
portage will still display the news item. Even if it doesn't, the user |
| 18 |
would still have had to ignore the news item and run the depclean |
| 19 |
first. |
