you need to show what *does* own those files run `qfile /usr/bin/geqn /usr/bin/gtbl`
(In reply to comment #1) > you need to show what *does* own those files Oh, sorry, forgot to paste my epm -qf lines... Those files aren't owned by anything.
portage bug ... those symlinks used to be part of groff, but then 1.19.2 stopped creating them ... portage left them behind instead of removing them you can safely force the emerge of groff as it is supposed to be providing those symlinks
Not a collision-protect bug.
