What's worse is that after a while the version program your wanted goes stable you have to remember the remove the reference to it in one of the /etc/portage/package.* files or potentially spend more time resolving dependencies.
Fortunately there is an excellent solution available in the form of eix-test-obsolete command. I'll let its help page describe itself:
It calls eix -tTc several times with various variable settings in order to
display missing packages or packages with obsolete entries in
/etc/portage/package.*
Eix is the uberfast, pre-cached Portage search alternative to emerge -s that every Gentoo system should have.
emerge -av app-portage/eix
