!!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been pulled
!!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict:

dev-lang/swig:0

  (dev-lang/swig-2.0.4::gentoo, installed) pulled in by
    (no parents that aren't satisfied by other packages in this slot)

  (dev-lang/swig-1.3.40-r1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
    =dev-lang/swig-1.3* required by (dev-python/pivy-0.5_alpha20110303::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)


It may be possible to solve this problem by using package.mask to
prevent one of those packages from being selected. However, it is also
possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are
impossible to satisfy simultaneously.  If such a conflict exists in
the dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can
not be installed simultaneously. You may want to try a larger value of
the --backtrack option, such as --backtrack=30, in order to see if
that will solve this conflict automatically.

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man
page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

It says "backtracking aborted after 6 tries". Have you retried it with --backtrack=30 as the emerge output suggests in comment #0?
Comment 6 Juergen Rose 2011-10-19 14:30:58 UTC
'emerge --backtrack=30 -vD freecad' installed swig-1.3.40-r1 instead of swig-2.0.4 and then tried to install sci-libs/gts-20100321-r2 which failed due to file collision with sci-chemistry/apbs-1.3-r1 (/usr/bin/smooth).
I will file a seperate bug for this.
Comment 7 Juergen Rose 2011-10-19 14:34:51 UTC
The bug with the filecollision between sci-libs/gts-20100321-r2 and sci-chemistry/apbs-1.3-r1 is Bug 387689.

Maybe we can optimize the backtracker to solve this in fewer steps. Otherwise, we might increase the default backtracking limit from 10 to maybe 15 or 20.
Comment 9 Juergen Rose 2011-10-19 17:06:42 UTC
I do not understand, how an other limit for backtracking can help, as long there is this file collision.

The file collision has nothing to do with sys-apps/portage. We can ignore it for the purposes of this bug report.
Comment 11 Sebastian Luther (few) 2011-10-23 06:42:40 UTC
Please attach the output of your command with --backtrack=30 --debug

@Zac: Looking at the first backtrack, it masks the correct version, but later pulls this masked version in again. At this point the old version isn't in the candidate list.
Comment 12 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2012-07-11 20:34:57 UTC
This following fix might help for this bug or similar cases:

http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/portage.git;a=commit;h=69ae09d8fce2ed23c4eca7b7af83a3b47626795e

This bug caused corruption of the backtrack nodes, causing the backtracker to bail out with out exploring potentially good solutions.
