First, sys-libs/db is still slotted, of course
eix -n sys-libs/db
gives
[I] sys-libs/db

Trying
for S in 1 4.5 4.6 4.7 4.8; do
emerge -vpc sys-libs/db:$S
done
shows that here python-2.6.5-r2 uses 4.7 while perl-5.10.1 uses 4.8
and my system is running quite happily (at least, I think so)

[gentoo-user] libdb no longer slotted?
It seems that sys-libs/db used to be slotted (I previously had 3 or 4 versions installed). But todays update is failing becuase Python wants libdb-4.7 and Perl wants libdb-4.3. They won't both install because of file collisions. Is libdb no longer slotted? How does one deal with applications that require different versions of libdb? Neither google nor bugzilla have been helpful... >>> Failed to install sys-libs/db-4.3.29_p1-r1, Log file: >>> '/var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/db-4.3.29_p1-r1/temp/build.log' * Messages for package sys-libs/db-4.3.29_p1-r1: * This package will overwrite one or more files that may belong to other * packages (see list below).
