Bugzilla Bug 198647

avant-window-navigator-extras-0.2.1 fails to install; it gives a collision
error with notification-daemon-0.3.7 on
/etc/gconf/schemas/notification-daemon.schemas. It previously also happened
with the xeffects ebuilds. 

I guess it should be reported upstream?

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
 * package gnome-extra/avant-window-navigator-extras-0.2.1 NOT merged
 *
 * Detected file collision(s):
 *
 *      /etc/gconf/schemas/notification-daemon.schemas
 *
 * Searching all installed packages for file collisions...
 *
 * Press Ctrl-C to Stop
 *
 * x11-misc/notification-daemon-0.3.7

Don't set FEATURE collision-protect or press ctrl-c as instructed below, and it
won't prevent you from merging. I am not sure if it's providing the same schema
another ebuild is. Or if it's a modified version or what. Haven't had a chance
to look into it, but will do asap.

Although it's possible this collision might remain and I might need to address
it via other means. Other than not installing said file or etc.

Thanks a lot for the effort and all, but I think the extra's package is missing
some dependencies, reading
http://wiki.awn-project.org/index.php?title=Awn_Extras:Installation
gnome-base/gnome-menus
gnome-base/librsvg
gnome-base/libgtop
x11-libs/libsexy
x11-libs/libnotify
dev-python/pyalsaaudio
net-libs/libgmail

are dependencies as well, I don't know what the inherit gnome2 does, as I just
started to mingle with ebuilds and stuff, and didn't see these in the awn
ebuild either, so are they really missing in the ebuild or am I being the
annoying n00b again?

And would it make sense to split the avant-window-navigator into a meta-package
or whatever you call it? Since there are more packages to come for this dock,
like the themes package, the 3rd party applets package, like call the present
awn ebuild avant-...-base-0.2.1 and then have one ebuild that would emerge the
fully packed dock.

A note to Hamid Ohadi: AWN dock works just fine without the extras, although
without the extra functionality, so would it be interesting to mention that on
the wiki? And if so, they can either have to emerge the extra which will pull
naturally awn since it's listed as a dependency, or just emerge awn alone, for
the basic dock?

Same problem here

schemas.diff

This is a diff between original notification-daemon file and awn one

Reading opensuse's src.rpm, they fix this simply moving the affected files.
From spec file I get:

# Make sure we don't get any conflicts
mv ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}/%{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/notification-daemon.schemas \
  
${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}/%{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/awn-notification-daemon.schemas
mv ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}/%{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/awnsystemmonitor.schemas \
   ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}/%{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/awn-system-monitor.schemas
mv ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}/%{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/filebrowser.schemas \
   ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}/%{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/awn-filebrowser.schemas
mv ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}/%{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/switcher.schemas \
   ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}/%{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/awn-switcher.schemas
mv ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}/%{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/trash.schemas \
   ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}/%{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/awn-trash.schemas

Then, seems that this can be easily fixed, if you want, I could attach a diff
for the current ebuild :-)

This diff fixes the problem

Thanks a lot for applying it to main tree

Thanks for the patch, I might run with that for now. Till a better way comes
along, unless that is the better way :) Which if so will remain. Will see about
adding ASAP.

Ok, thanks for the patch, I bumped the ebuild per the changes, and committed to
tree. Closing this bug, as the collision issue has been resolve. Thanks Pacho.

FYI, all of the python dependencies should be RDEPENDs, as they are not needed
at compile-time.
