Description Peter Gantner (a.k.a. nephros) 2006-09-11 12:58:15 UTC
From emerging dev-util/monotone-0.29:

* checking 39 files for package collisions
existing file /usr/share/info/monotone.info-1.gz is not owned by this package
existing file /usr/share/info/monotone.info-2.gz is not owned by this package
existing file /usr/share/info/monotone.info.gz is not owned by this package

# equery b /usr/share/info/monotone.info-1.gz 
[ Searching for file(s) /usr/share/info/monotone.info-1.gz in *... ]
dev-util/monotone-0.25 (/usr/share/info/monotone.info-1.gz)

monotone is slotted:

# emerge -pv monotone

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild  NS   ] dev-util/monotone-0.29  USE="bash-completion -doc -emacs -ipv6 -nls" 0 kB 


# emerge -C monotone && emerge monotone
does work though and nothing I have installed seems to depend on version 25 explicitly.
Comment 1 Daniel Black (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-28 22:26:40 UTC
to fix this would require moving the newer monotone info files around. having two versions installed I wouldn't want the user to see the older monotone info files instead of the newer versions.

I'll remove the older monotone builds in the next 6 months.
