I'm getting this:
[ebuild N ] app-admin/eselect-notify-send-0.1 0 kB
[ebuild U ] x11-libs/libnotify-0.7.5-r1 [0.7.5] USE="introspection -doc {-test} (-symlink%*)" 0 kB
[blocks b ] <x11-libs/libnotify-0.7.5-r1 ("<x11-libs/libnotify-0.7.5-r1" is blocking app-admin/eselect-notify-send-0.1)


Any workaround?

No workaround required since it says 'b' instead of 'B' which means Portage will resolve the dependency for you. Small 'b' is called a softblocker, and in this case Portage will automatically
upgrade libnotify to 0.7.5-r1 and resolve it.
If it was 'B' then you'd have to run manual `emerge -1 libnotify` but it isn't. Why did you think it needed working around?

Cause I'm thick? :)

I didn't notice the small 'b', thanx for that.
