net-misc/asterisk when compiled with radius use flag should install dictionary.digium from contrib to /etc/radiusclient-ng/ and append string $INCLUDE /etc/radiusclient-ng/dictionary.digium to dictionary file of radiusclient-ng. Reproducible: Always
It is not Gentoo style to modify existing configuration files on the system, from the sound of it these files are owned by other ebuilds?
Ok, agreed. Warning through einfo at postinst of asterisk regarding include would be sufficient.
