existing file /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/perllocal.pod is
not owned by this package
* This package is blocked because it wants to overwrite
* files belonging to other packages (see messages above).

While it shouldn't... *Nothing* should own this file; if it belongs to
app-arch/alien it means that ebuild is broken and has overwritten this file. It
should use fixlocalpod from perl-app.eclass to prevent such behavior.

i'll have a look asap (i don't use alien much myself anymore - though i am of
course still interested in it and to keep it working ;))

just to let you know that i did not forget about it, just was quite busy with
work 

Added version 8.66 to portage. uses perl-app.
please test (i don't want to change the other existing ebuilds before someone
else can confirm this works ok - i don't have a lot of rpm,deb,.. packages
around and don't have the time to do extensive tests on it unfortunately)

I get an access violation:
ACCESS DENIED  mkdir:     /var/lib/alien

hmm strange .. it emerged fine here last night...
maybe some update in the eclass. will check.

btw .. please set your locale to english before posting error messages ;) (in
this case i can guess the message but that's only cuz it's very simle ;))

Well, all was that needed to fix the original bug was adding the inherit and
sticking fixlocalpod to src_install. Just do it this way if the perl way fails.
:)

a little bit of 'sed-magic' (yes i could have used perl but i'm more
comfortable with sed for small things like this ;)) solved the problem :D

The bug is FIXED

Thanks :-)
