Hi there, Debian seems to have gone that route to rename the filemanager git to gitfm, to resolve the ambiquity Thanx
Upstream call git git, so we call git git. Good thing we have categories, eh?
But how do I get this fixed?? fastone ~ # emerge git Calculating dependencies !!! The short ebuild name "git" is ambiguous. Please specify !!! one of the following fully-qualified ebuild names instead: app-misc/git dev-util/git fastone ~ # emerge app-misc/git Calculating dependencies ...done! !!! Error: the dev-util/cogito package conflicts with another package. !!! both can't be installed on the same system together. !!! Please use 'emerge --pretend' to determine blockers. fastone ~ # emerge git Calculating dependencies !!! The short ebuild name "git" is ambiguous. Please specify !!! one of the following fully-qualified ebuild names instead: app-misc/git dev-util/git fastone ~ # emerge app-misc/git Calculating dependencies ...done! !!!

whoops, cut-paste missed this part: fastone ~ # emerge app-misc/git -p These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [blocks B ] dev-util/cogito (is blocking app-misc/git-4.3.20) [blocks B ] dev-util/git (is blocking app-misc/git-4.3.20) [ebuild N ] app-misc/git-4.3.20 fastone ~ #
You can't install them both at once. emerge -pv will tell you that.
