sys-apps/portage-2.1.4.4 

* Messages for package sys-apps/coreutils-6.10-r2:

 * This package will overwrite one or more files that may belong to other
 * packages (see list below). Add "collision-protect" to FEATURES in
 * make.conf if you would like the merge to abort in cases like this. You
 * can use a command such as `portageq owners / <filename>` to identify
 * the installed package that owns a file. If portageq reports that only
 * one package owns a file then do NOT file a bug report. A bug report is
 * only useful if it identifies at least two or more packages that are
 * known to install the same file(s). If a collision occurs and you can
 * not explain where the file came from then you should simply ignore the
 * collision since there is not enough information to determine if a real
 * problem exists. Please do NOT file a bug report at
 * http://bugs.gentoo.org unless you report exactly which two packages
 * install the same file(s). Once again, please do NOT file a bug report
 * unless you have completely understood the above message.
 *
 * Detected file collision(s):

Debianutils-2.15 is not in tree since Christmas last year. Last time it was newest stable was around 2006. Please keep your system reasonably up-to-date  and this won't be a problem.
