[gentoo-user] Blocking packages?

[gentoo-user] Blocking packages?

I'm a bit confused. If Itry to emerge -Dup world, it spits out this:

Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[blocks B ] dev-php/mod_php (is blocking dev-lang/php-5.0.5-r1)
[blocks B ] dev-php/php (is blocking dev-lang/php-5.0.5-r1)
[blocks B ] dev-php/mod_php (is blocking dev-php/PEAR-PEAR-1.3.6)
[blocks B ] dev-php/php (is blocking dev-php/PEAR-PEAR-1.3.6)
[ebuild U ] sys-apps/sandbox-1.2.13 [1.2.12]
[ebuild U ] sys-devel/autoconf-wrapper-3.2 [3.1]
(...)

So, it seems dev-php/mod_php and dev-php/php are blocking some packages.
However, I have unmerged both of them already. Why are they still blocking?

# emerge -C dev-php/php dev-php/mod_php

--- Couldn't find dev-php/php to unmerge.

--- Couldn't find dev-php/mod_php to unmerge.

>>> unmerge: No packages selected for removal.

Anyone know what might be causing this?
Thanks

Well, dev-php is not compatible with dev-lang/php. You have to emerge
dev-php/php and dev-php/mod_php for apache support. If you emerge
dev-lang/php, you'll have both of them, and it will have support for
apache too.

I recommend you to emerge dev-lang/php instead of dev-php/php and
dev-php/mod_php.

Yes, done that. However, it seems there are some packages that depend
specifically on dev-php/php, and if I try to emerge them, they complain.
I have unmerged the offending packages, and everything is working now.
However, to avoid all of this, I had to upgrade to php-5. No problem,
everything working fine.
Btw, why are there dev-php/php and dev-lang/php? Aren't they all the same
old php? Or is this some kind of transition?

Thanks
