Hi, |
| 15 |
|

Personally, I think slot is a very good way for multiple versions of a |
| 17 |
package to co-exist. |

You can safely unemerge a specific version of any package by pointing |
| 20 |
out its exact signature, i.e. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
| # emerge --unmerge =<category>/<package>-<version> |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Replace it with your exact PHP package name. |

Best, |
