emerge --update --deep --newuse --pretend world
No conflict shown with emerge --update --deep --newuse --ask world so probably the emerge would work. Didn't try yet. And please note that the slot conflict is shown to be provoked by conflicting dependencies of the _same_ package! dev-ml/camlp4-4.04_p1:0/4.04_p1::gentoo in both cases. Conflict backtracking logic is different with --fetchonly, since bug 161422. It's the depgraph _accept_blocker_conflicts method that modifies behavior when some options are enabled. I think what we should do is make the backtracking logic independent of --fetchonly. We could still allow fetch to proceed despite conflicts, as requested in bug 161422, but it's a questionable case that perhaps is not worth supporting.

Since I filed bug 161422, it was filed mainly because it was a regression from previous versions of portage at the time. That specific use case is more for convenience than anything. So I'm actually thinking that if emerge --nodeps --fetchonly <multiple conflicting packages> would work that would fit the use case. If you want the dependencies fetched, then you would have to run it with the packages individually. If that is more trouble than it's worth. I would go ahead and drop support for that bug. The bug has been referenced in the following commit(s): https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/portage.git/commit/?id=a5078e5774932103d4ad367de4c6bf130a6da34f commit a5078e5774932103d4ad367de4c6bf130a6da34f Author: Zac Medico <zmedico@gentoo.org> AuthorDate: 2024-01-15 23:10:03 +0000 Commit: Zac Medico <zmedico@gentoo.org> CommitDate: 2024-01-16 16:01:53 +0000 emerge: backtrack consistently regardless of --fetchonly Make the _accept_blocker_conflicts method always return True when backtracking is enabled, so that backtracking results will be identical regardless of options that _accept_blocker_conflicts treats specially. This way, conflicts will only be accepted when backtracking is disabled or all backtracking tries have been exhausted. Make --nodeps imply --backtrack=0, since backtracking is only useful with dependencies. Make _eliminate_rebuilds return early if there are slot conflicts, since the merge list is invalid anyway, and its possible that state inconsistencies could trigger unexpected exceptions as in bug 922038. Make the KeyError from bug 922038 a warning, and include relevant information to help trace the inconsistency back to the _eliminate_rebuilds method or some other source like _solve_non_slot_operator_slot_conflicts.
