I just tried to emerge graphicsmagick on a system with ImageMagick already installed (to compare speed between the two). I added collision-protect to FEATURES just in case, as I guessed these two might share binaries, and lo and behold I got: <snip> * checking 118 files for package collisions existing file /usr/share/man/man4/miff.4.gz is not owned by this package existing file /usr/share/man/man5/quantize.5.gz is not owned by this package * spent 0.224670171738 seconds checking for file collisions * This package is blocked because it wants to overwrite * files belonging to other packages (see messages above). * If you have no clue what this is all about report it * as a bug for this package on http://bugs.gentoo.org package media-gfx/graphicsmagick-1.1.6-r1 NOT merged Should those man pages be changed, or should ImageMagick and graphicsmagick block one another? Obviously the latter should be avoided if possible. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
It seems to be solved with current versions of ImageMagick. Just tried to emerge both packages with collision-protect FEATURE and emerged fine. The conflicting man pages are now only installed by GraphicsMagick and not ImageMagick. Here is the evidende: tulku@Ofelia ~ $ qlist graphicsmagick | grep man /usr/share/man/man1/GraphicsMagickWand-config.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/gm.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/GraphicsMagick++-config.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1/GraphicsMagick-config.1.gz /usr/share/man/man4/miff.4.gz /usr/share/man/man5/quantize.5.gz tulku@Ofelia ~ $ qlist imagemagick | grep man | grep miff tulku@Ofelia ~ $ tulku@Ofelia ~ $ qlist imagemagick | grep man | grep quantize tulku@Ofelia ~ $ Also, just to be sure, I looked into both source packages looking for this man pages and in fact, they were only present in the graphicsmagick source. Marking this bug INVALID (because current versions don't have it), please reopen if I did something very, very wrong :) Lucas Chiesa
