Description Helmut Jarausch 2009-12-20 14:26:50 UTC 
Both packages, sys-block/gpart and sci-libs/scotch
try to install /usr/bin/gpart
resulting in a package collision

Reproducible: Always

gpart wins, scotch loses

in other words, either install blockers or have scotch rename its binary.  if you go the blocker route, feel free to add the blocker to the gpart ebuild.
Comment 2 Oliver Borm 2009-12-27 11:45:12 UTC 
it should be no problem to rename all scotch binaries with prefix "scotch_", as the debian distribution does.
