equery d is unreliable, emerge -cav is a better check if deps.

When one package blocks another, it is often because both provide the
same files. It looks like xorg-proto is replacing a load f x11-proto
package. Remove the old one and let emerge work it out for you.

Unlikely, because they will probably be satisfied by xorg-proto too, but
quickpkg anything you are going to remove, just in case.

But ... I actually have packages that depend on scrnsaverproto:

So I have to unmerge xautolock and xssstate too?  That will be painful
because they're baked deep into my X configuration.  I think it will
require a trip to the Linux console :-P



No,

I have x11-base/xorg-proto-2018.4  and x11-proto/scrnsaverproto-1.2.2-r2
install here.

Try to emerge x11-base/xorg-proto and x11-proto/scrnsaverproto  
simultaneously.
