19 The recent changes to the libav/ffmpeg handling were done (also) to fix this particular problem there.
20
21 Before, the virtual pulled in one solution, but it was "up to portage" to decide which one. So sometimes the decision flipped to another solution (e.g. because of delays in stabling), and (since ffmpeg and libav block each other) things went awry.
22
23 Now, the virtual and the packages get an explicit instruction via the libav useflag: "I want *this* solution."
