xfce 4.4 upgrade problem

Tried to upgrade from xfce 4.2 to version 4.4, but got:

nadav ~ # emerge -pu   xfce4

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

[blocks B     ] >=xfce-base/xfce4-panel-4.3 (is blocking
xfce-extra/xfce4-datetime-0.3.1-r1,
xfce-extra/xfce4-battery-0.3.0-r1,
xfce-extra/xfce4-cpugraph-0.2.2-r2,
xfce-extra/xfce4-notes-0.10.0-r1,
xfce-extra/xfce4-clipman-0.4.1-r1)

.
.
.

Any work around?

  Nadav.

Instead of unmerging all blocking packages by hand, I used
the following
sequence:

# emerge --sync
# emerge -C xfce4
# emerge --depclean
# emerge -uDN world
# emerge xfce4
# revdep-rebuild

Of course, you must be very careful when you do the
'--depclean' part.
