librss complains about collisions when attempting to emerge, and these collisions are from other packages. I am shifting from monolithic to split kde ebuilds Reproducible: Only when I don't hide the colliding files. If I hide the colliding files, it installs with no problems Steps to reproduce: Install cups, imagemagick, dev-lang/mono or wxGTK and try to emerge kde-base/librss Actual Results: Aborted compile Expected results: Successful compile of kde-base/librss Snippet from emerge kde-base/librss >>> Installing kde-base/librss-3.5.10 * checking 13 files for package collisions * This package will overwrite one or more files that may belong to other * packages (see list below).

no - the file collisions occur because you switch from monolithic to split ebuilds. unmerge the monolithic ebuilds first (or switch of collision-detect) for this to work. thanks
