net-misc/ubridge-0.9.18 needs to be rebuilt after updating its dependency dev-libs/iniparser:4. However, it's not possible since net-misc/ubridge ebuild applies a patch to use a slotted version of iniparser: src/ubridge.c:29:10: fatal error: iniparser4/iniparser.h: No such file or directory 29 | #include <iniparser4/iniparser.h> | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ dev-libs/iniparser-4.2.2 altered its file paths, e.g. the aforementioned header file is installed to /usr/include/iniparser/iniparser.h Trying to emerge iniparser:0 also leads to a file collision: * Detected file collision(s): * * /usr/lib64/libiniparser.so * * Searching all installed packages for file collisions... * * Press Ctrl-C to Stop * * dev-libs/iniparser-4.2.2:4::gentoo * /usr/lib64/libiniparser.so * * Package 'dev-libs/iniparser-3.1-r3' NOT merged due to file collisions. Reproducible: Always

Ideally should get rid of slots entirely, a lot of packages depend on the old one not because they are not compatible with the new (I'd hope so anyway), but because they need a workaround to find the "modified" iniparser with slotting logic. e.g. media-sound/cava is forced to use a patch to use the old iniparser:4, and 4.2.2 allowed me to drop that patch (well, it's still there for now but limited to <4.2.2, not that I couldn't drop that if slot logic is re-added).
