OK, do it once, I will be able to extend the logic.  I meant what I said
about not having a clue, so drop me a clue here.  Here is the first
dependency, explain how to handle it precisely (no buzzwords, if I have to
press "2" say that, not the function that it obtains, 'cause I really
don't understand it).  OK, here's the single example, handle it please:

=======================================================================
Stale dependency: gnome2-2.8.3_1 -> gstreamer-plugins-gnomevfs-0.8.8_1
(devel/gstreamer-plugins-gnomevfs):
gstreamer-ffmpeg-0.8.3_2 (score:55%) ? ([y]es/[n]o/[a]ll) [no] New
dependency? (? to help):
=======================================================================
