Hi!

Code:
# emerge -up world

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[blocks B     ] x11-libs/libXft (is blocking x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r6)
[ebuild     UD] x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r6 [7.0.0_rc3]
[ebuild  N    ] virtual/x11-6.8 
[ebuild  N    ] x11-terms/xterm-204 
[ebuild     U ] www-client/mozilla-firefox-1.5-r2 [1.5-r1]

Code:

The best solution for the downgrade problem is given in bugzilla:
Code:
echo 'virtual/x11 >=xorg-x11-7.0.0_rc3' >> /etc/portage/profile/virtuals


/etc/portage/profile does not exist.....

so just stuff one in there...

=) thanks

That actually borked my system, but changing it to x11-base/xorg-x11-7.0.0_rc3 worked for me.
