Description Mike Nerone 2005-03-03 23:49:31 UTC 
sys-process/acct and sys-apps/baselayout-1.9.4-r6 both install /usr/share/man/man1/last.1.gz.

Perhaps both "last" and its man page should be left out of the acct merge completely, since baselayout handles it? Note that acct installs the binary at /usr/bin/last while baselayout put it at /bin/last. I'm not sure if its removal would cause problems.
Comment 1 Mike Nerone 2005-03-03 23:55:22 UTC 
Gah...while you're at it, consider whether acct's dump-utmp and baselayout's utmpdump are redundant. That's the last place I see where acct is kinda stepping on baselayout's turf. :)

removed manpage ... we'll save the utmp stuff for another day ... ;)
