I set the ~x86 use flag for ffmpeg, getting the newest version in the

re-emerging ffmpeg and all it's dependencies before reverting back to
the older version. Is there a way to do this with the emerge tool?
I've read the man page and Googled but I am unable to turn anything up.
I would remove the installed version, remove the USE flag and just
re-emerge the stable release. If you've changed USE flags as well, then
you may want to do --newuse.
i would unmerge the ~x86 package then run an emerge -p --depclean to see
whitch packages are affected, if nothing realy useful is affected the go
ahead with it, then again emerge the real thing ;-) i always emerge
--newuse --columns even if i never change use variables from make.conf
