app-admin/python-updater-0.4 reporter a file collision on file /usr/sbin/python-updater portageq owners / /usr/sbin/python-updater returns app-admin/python-updater-0.4 dev-lang/python-2.4.3-r4 as both altering those files Reproducible: Didn't try Actual Results: this is during clean install from 2007.0 minimal cd, after emerge --sync and occurred during updaing portage as reported by the sync. This is also after having to mask bash which was blocking portage and was already bug-reported
Fixed by unmerging python-updater, emerge -u python, then re-emerge python-updater fixed the problem. may need the ebuild to check python version before updating python-updater?

The file collision isn't really a problem - it only occurs when you update an older system's dev-lang/python. Currently stable versions of dev-lang/python don't own it any longer: elmer ~ # qfile `which python-updater` app-admin/python-updater (/usr/sbin/python-updater)
