Description Petteri Räty (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-11-17 12:08:11 UTC
!!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been pulled
!!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict:

net-misc/curl:0

  (net-misc/curl-7.26.0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
    <net-misc/curl-7.27.0 required by (dev-cpp/libcmis-0.1.0-r1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)

  (net-misc/curl-7.28.0-r1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
    (no parents that aren't satisfied by other packages in this slot)

Portage 2.2.0_alpha142 (default/linux/x86/10.0/desktop, gcc-4.5.3, glibc-2.15-r2, 3.6.0-gentoo i686)

The problematic terms:
 - package instances --> versions
 - other packages in this slot --> other versions in this slot

I will also open a new bug for the case itself as it seems Portage could handle this automatically.

It's possible for a conflict like this to involve two package instances of the *same* version. For example, you could have one installed instance that has different USE settings from an ebuild of the same version that got pulled in.
