Attempting to install sys-cluster/openmpi-1.8.5 results in portage refusing to install due to file collisions with app-text/lcdf-typetools. File in question is /usr/bin/otfinfo

I too have this problem, but here are my file conflicts. lcdf-typetools will fail if you install openmpi first. Detected file collision(s): * * /usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/otfinfo.debug * /usr/bin/otfinfo This is weird because: Dependencies app-text / lcdf-typetools : Font utilities for eg manipulating OTF lcdf-typetools is listed as a dependency of openmpi.
I have installed openmpi along with lcdf-typetools now. I disabled the USE="vt" flag. you don't want to use a bundled VampirTrace. [-] vt -- (sys-cluster/openmpi) Enable bundled VampirTrace support built and installed with lcdf-typetools.
I can confirm that this problem is related to emerging openmpi with USE="vt" to enable vampirtrace. If I disable the vt use flag I no longer have the file collision
this bug still exists in sys-cluster/openmpi-1.10.2
USE=vt removed in OpenMPI 2.0.1
