Looks like: https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-desktop/issues/68 In gnome-desktop:2 we have a "license-docs" USE flag pulling gnome-desktop:3 and pass --disable-desktop-docs in that slot Other option could be to even add a "gnome" USE flag for this, this way: 1. If it's enabled we assume people wants gnome stuff and they can install gnome-desktop:3 2. If it's disabled we assume they don't want gnome at all and the docs would be installed by mate
Thank you for identifying the problem. It looks like it was never intended to install MATE (GNOME 2) besides GNOME 3 on the same system. In this case i’d like to suggest another option for a solution: lets generate another package for the desktop docs so both gnome-base/gnome-desktop and mate-base/mate-desktop depend on this new package and don’t interfere each other.

Sounds like an idea, if content is same; either that, or the other two options.
look like the recent mate-base/mate-desktop-1.8.1 lost this: diff -u mate-desktop-1.8.0-r1.ebuild mate-desktop-1.8.1.ebuild --- mate-desktop-1.8.0-r1.ebuild 2014-05-07 14:31:58.000000000 +0200 +++ mate-desktop-1.8.1.ebuild 2014-05-09 13:51:36.000000000 +0200 @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ # Copyright 1999-2014 Gentoo Foundation # Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 -# $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/mate-base/mate-desktop/mate-desktop-1.8.0-r1.ebuild,v 1.1 2014/05/07 12:31:58 tomwij Exp $ +# $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/mate-base/mate-desktop/mate-desktop-1.8.1.ebuild,v 1.1 2014/05/09 11:51:36 tomwij Exp $ EAPI="5" @@ -46,9 +46,7 @@ src_configure() { gnome2_src_configure \ - --enable-mate-about \ --enable-mate-conf-import \ - --disable-desktop-docs \ --with-gtk=2.0 \ $(use_with X x) \ $(use_enable startup-notification) and naturally 1.8.1 gives me: * Messages for package mate-base/mate-desktop-1.8.1: * This package will overwrite one or more files that may belong to other * packages (see list below). * * Detected file collision(s): * * /usr/share/help/sv/lgpl/index.docbook * /usr/share/help/sv/gpl/index.docbook * /usr/share/help/sv/fdl/index.docbook * * Searching all installed packages for file collisions... * * Press Ctrl-C to Stop * * gnome-base/gnome-desktop-3.10.2:3::gentoo * /usr/share/help/sv/fdl/index.docbook * /usr/share/help/sv/gpl/index.docbook * /usr/share/help/sv/lgpl/index.docbook * * Package 'mate-base/mate-desktop-1.8.1' NOT merged due to file * collisions.

What is the current status of this bug?
The -r1s, edited by tomwij, remove the colliding files from mate-desktop. I spoke with a user earlier today who did MATE and gnome at the same time, so I'm going to say that this is resolved. If this happens to be in error for some reason, feel free to reopen.
