Description Richard Brown (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-15 14:58:52 UTC 
installing baselayout-1.13.0_alpha-r1 with paludis i got this error

>>> [dir] /usr/share
merge: fatal error: Cannot overwrite directory '/usr/share/baselayout' with a fi le
>>> [obj] /usr/share/baselayout
!!! ERROR in sys-apps/baselayout-1.13.0_alpha1-r1:

Install error:

I think on line 156 of the ebuild it's assuming that "${D}"/usr/share/baselayout is already a directory, but that's the first mention of it in this ebuild. It does get mentioned earlier in the most recent 1.12 ebuild

Your analysis is correct and this will be fixed in alpha2.
