Description:   Opened: 2004-01-07 00:57 0000 
It seems both of them install /usr/bin/vacation. Regarding to the Changelog of
vacation, it is quite old (last entry is from somewhere in 2001). I'm not sure
about the differences, but it looks vacation is now part of sendmail, so we
should remove the package for vacation or set a blocking if sendmail is
installed (otherwise one would switch between the two versions when a update to
one of them is available).

HTH,
Jan

sendmail-8.12.10 (latest stable) installs vacation in /usr/bin.
sendmail-8.12.11 (latest unstable) installs vacation in /bin.
vacation-1.2.6.1 (latest) installs vacation in /usr/bin.

Either way, it's sloppy. I agree with Jan that these packages should be blocked.
I attached some diffs to implement this.

I do not think the stand-alone vacation ebuild should be removed, though.  How much active development could there be on an application like this? haha Also, it's at least useful to people who do not use sendmail.

Finally, just to keep things current, sendmail is now in mail-mta.

Ok, I added a block to net-mail/vacation, since phosphan (the maintainer) is
currently on devaway.

gregf, could you please add the block to sendmail ebuilds?

A new sendmail-8.13.1-r1 ebuild is masked in portage now and it has a block for
net-mail/vacation.

Testing is appreciated :)

That seems to work just fine. Please unmask. :)

Fixed.
