Description Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

Let's make a tracker to record ebuilds that still do not fix the problem of 
"install: will not overwrite just-created [...]" that happens only when automake-1.10 and coreutils-8.4 are combined and unleashed upon a Makefile.{am|in} that lists a single installation target twice.

Should be automake 1.11 - only then will an autoremake detect newer coreutils which is multi-install safe.

Comment 2 SpanKY gentoo-dev

this is pretty much all set, and we've stabilized newer versions of both coreutils and automake, so anything still not fixed should probably be tree cleaned
