owncloud-client and nextcloud-client should be able to be installed side-by-side. Current owncloud-client warns about connecting to nextcloud servers and probably will refuse such an connection in the future as it is already done by the android apps. Therefore it will be necessary to have both clients installed in order to connect to a nextcloud and a owncloud server concurrently. At a quick glance this should be possible since all files installed by nextcloud-client seem to be nextcloud specific: ~ # equery files nextcloud-client | grep -vi nextcloud /etc /usr /usr/bin /usr/include /usr/lib /usr/lib/debug /usr/lib/debug/usr /usr/lib/debug/usr/bin /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib64 /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib64/qt5 /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib64/qt5/plugins /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib64/qt5/plugins/kf5 /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib64/qt5/plugins/kf5/overlayicon /usr/lib64 /usr/lib64/qt5 /usr/lib64/qt5/plugins /usr/lib64/qt5/plugins/kf5 /usr/lib64/qt5/plugins/kf5/overlayicon /usr/share /usr/share/applications /usr/share/doc /usr/share/icons /usr/share/icons/hicolor /usr/share/icons/hicolor/1024x1024 /usr/share/icons/hicolor/1024x1024/apps /usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128 /usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps /usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16 /usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps /usr/share/icons/hicolor/22x22 /usr/share/icons/hicolor/22x22/apps /usr/share/icons/hicolor/256x256 /usr/share/icons/hicolor/256x256/apps /usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32 /usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48 /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps /usr/share/icons/hicolor/512x512 /usr/share/icons/hicolor/512x512/apps /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64 /usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps /usr/share/icons/hicolor/72x72 /usr/share/icons/hicolor/72x72/apps /usr/share/kservices5
Indeed, now that nextcloud-client has a "more separate" codebase, it should be fine (2.3 was really just a skinned owncloud-client). I will confirm and remove the blocker if all good
