I am trying to emerge some packages but I get some errors about udev.

Code:

[blocks B      ] <sys-fs/udev-init-scripts-22 ("<sys-fs/udev-init-scripts-22" is blocking sys-fs/udev-197-r8)

 * Error: The above package list contains packages which cannot be
 * installed at the same time on the same system.

  (sys-fs/udev-197-r8::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
    >=sys-fs/udev-197-r8[gudev,hwdb,kmod] required by (virtual/udev-197-r1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
    sys-fs/udev required by @selected

  (sys-fs/udev-init-scripts-19-r1::gentoo, installed) pulled in by
    sys-fs/udev-init-scripts required by @selected
    >=sys-fs/udev-init-scripts-19-r1 required by (sys-fs/udev-197-r8::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)


How do I solve this block?

Currently I have
Code:

[U] sys-fs/udev

I will surely get flamed for what i am about to say.

DISCLAIMER: could break your system!!!

I had a similar block with udev once on a fresh install , and no data to loose so i unmerged udev and reinstalled the latest version of it.
That gamble paid off but it could have gone wrong too.

You should test it on a chrooted copy of your installation first, tough to be safe.
