This was probably my biggest problem. I understand that announcements cant
be sent out everytime weirdlibA-2.35 is going to be a blocker for AppB3.6.
But having to go to the forums (not that I don't love the gentoo forums)
and look for a post for instructions *after* emerging a major package has
already failed got annoying.
