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. For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
confirmed here. You can get around this by emerging dev-lang/php as so. # emerge --nodeps -1 dev-lang/php then try your emerge @world ....
The block is on purpose since init script etc were moved from php to eselect-php thus causing file collision. So what is the bug here?

But 'emerge --nodeps -1 dev-lang/php' fails due to Bug 462652/ I also tried to remove the threads USE flag from php, but then 'emerge -uvDN world' complains about: www-servers/apache:2 (www-servers/apache-2.4.4-r1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by www-servers/apache[threads=] required by (dev-lang/php-5.5.0_beta1-r2::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) www-servers/apache[threads=] required by (dev-lang/php-5.4.13-r2::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (www-servers/apache-2.4.4-r1::gentoo, installed) pulled in by (no parents that aren't satisfied by other packages in this slot) Then I tried to mask >=dev-lang/php-5.5.0_beta1 in /etc/portage/packages.mask.

(In reply to comment #2) > The block is on purpose since init script etc were moved from php to > eselect-php thus causing file collision. So what is the bug here? The bug is, that the addition of php-5.5.0_beta1-r2 to the portage tree blocks 'emerge world'.
That is not a bug. You must remove php before upgrading

(In reply to comment #5) > That is not a bug. You must remove php before upgrading OK, if I do first 'emerge -C php', then the blocking for 'emerge -uvDN world' disappears. But why I have to erase the php versions manually, why they are not deleted by 'emerge -uvDN world'?

But why I have to erase the php versions manually, why > they are not deleted by 'emerge -uvDN world'? Because automatically causing a state where PHP is not installed is a bad thing. In some cases it could cause a server to fail.
After a bit of discussions, it was made clear that regular soft blocker will work. Sorry for the inconvenience.
