Recent ebuild xfce-base/thunar-1.8.3 fails to merge due to file collision if gnome-base/nautilus-3.26.4-r2 is also installed. Colliding file: /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.freedesktop.FileManager1.service Both packages provide the same file. Thunar implemented the file recently: https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12414 >>> Installing (x of y) xfce-base/thunar-1.8.3::gentoo * checking 101 files for package collisions * 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 ... * * Detected file collision(s): * * /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.freedesktop.FileManager1.service * * Searching all installed packages for file collisions... * * Press Ctrl-C to Stop * * gnome-base/nautilus-3.26.4-r2:0::gentoo * /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.freedesktop.FileManager1.service * * Package 'xfce-base/thunar-1.8.3' NOT merged due to file collisions.

Removing the file in question then emerging thunar and nautilus again allows it to continue. But thats not a total solution since the contents of the files are different. Exec=/usr/bin/thunar vs Exec=/usr/bin/nautilus
