During KDE 3.5.1 -> 4.x upgrade i had a conflict message come up between kde-misc/dolphin-0.8.2-r1 and kde-base/dolphin-4.1.2 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install kde-misc/dolphin-0.8.2-r1 2. try to install kde-base/dolphin-4.1.2 3. Actual Results: >>> Installing kde-base/dolphin-4.1.2 * This package will overwrite one or more files that may belong to other * packages (see list below). 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): * * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/browsebutton.png * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/configurationwindow.png * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/systemmediadirectory.png * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/toolbarbuttons.png * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/dolphin.png * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/workspacebuttons.png * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/hiddenfolder.png * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/bookmarksidebar.png * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/directorypath.png * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/configurationwindow2.png * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/configurationwindow3.png * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/bookmarkbutton.png * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/breadcrumb.png * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/informationsidebar.png * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/split.png * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/index.docbook * /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin/index.cache.bz2 * /usr/share/apps/dolphin/dolphinui.rc * /usr/bin/dolphin * * Searching all installed packages for file collisions... * * Press Ctrl-C to Stop Expected Results: upgraded to the new version of dolphin
Uninstall the old kde-misc/dolphin and then install kde-base/dolphin.
(In reply to comment #1) > Uninstall the old kde-misc/dolphin and then install kde-base/dolphin. Looks to me like neither should be installing files in /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/dolphin in the first place, and ought to be using /usr/kde/3.5/share/doc/ or its KDE 4 equivalent.
it is fixed with new kde3 eclasses
