Old versions of installed libraries were detected on your system. |

In order to avoid breaking packages that depend on these old libs, |
| 10 |
the libraries are not being removed. You need to run revdep-rebuild |
| 11 |
in order to remove these old dependencies. If you do not have this |
| 12 |
helper program, simply emerge the 'gentoolkit' package. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
# revdep-rebuild --library libmpfr.so.1 |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Once you've finished running revdep-rebuild, it should be safe to |
| 17 |
delete the old libraries. Here is a copy & paste for the lazy: |
| 18 |
# rm '/usr/lib/libmpfr.so.1' |

Best I could tell was not install mpfr-3.0.0 version yet. |
| 26 |
|

So wondering if it is safe to follow the procedure suggested above. |
