So you successfully unmerged cdrkit, dvd+rw-tools and kino. The
installation of cdrtools fails because of a broken symlink. I guess the
/usr/include/scsilib/scg symlink to usr/include/scsilib/usal has not
been removed with cdrkit and is now broken and the cdrtools installation
can not overwrite the link. If the output is really red it is indeed a
broken symlink and you can safely remove it, then try to install
cdrtools again or use the proposed commands.
Mmmm, cdrtools may create a directory /usr/include/scg/ but the text /scsilib/
is nowhere in cdrtools.
In Gentoo scg is installed under /usr/include/scsilib
Here a snippet from the ebuild:
insinto /usr/include/scsilib/scg
doins include/scg/*.h
/usr/include/scsilib/scg -> /usr/include/scsilib/usal is a symlink used
by cdrkit. It was not removed when the package manager uninstalled
cdrkit. At least I think so, as this does not happen here but maybe with
older versions I don't use.
This is a really bad idea.
/usr/include/scg/ is a planned directory that is known to be unique.
cdrkit does not deliver anything that is even approximately useful as a
replacement for libscg.
Installing the includefiles from libscg into /usr/include/scsilib/scg makes them
unusable as there is no software that is aware of this location. It seems that
the only result is that it makes it harder to install cdrtools instread of
cdrkit.

Out of curiosity I tried a manual install and /usr/include/scg/ was not
created at all. The command i used was
./Gmake INS_BASE=/home/billie/cdrtools-test/ install
