Are you sure you don't have it also unmasked in package.unmask or similar? |

It looks like the version you already have installed is masked. So, |
| 24 |
perhaps portage doesn't consider upgrading from an already-installed |
| 25 |
masked version to a newer masked version a problem. |

Well, aside from pinging on IRC you could file a bug. I'm not sure if |
| 31 |
it is behaving as expected since you already have a masked package |
| 32 |
installed. |

|
| 34 |
I'm actually surprised it didn't try to downgrade gtk+ to an older |
| 35 |
version, unless something else needs the installed version. Or unless |
| 36 |
you have it unmasked someplace else. |
