When emerging app-alternatives for awk, I get the following message: >>> Installing (1 of 1) app-alternatives/awk-4::gentoo * Package 'app-alternatives/awk-4' has internal collisions between non- * identical files (located in separate directories in the installation * image (${D}) corresponding to merged directories in the target * filesystem (${ROOT})): * * /usr/bin/awk * /bin/awk * /usr/bin/awk * Differences: size, content * * Package 'app-alternatives/awk-4' NOT merged due to internal collisions * between non-identical files. If necessary, refer to your elog messages * for the whole content of the above message. That is quite weird, as i have /bin as symlink of /usr/bin. Is the package checking the link itself? Reproducible: Always
Please include the full build.log and emerge --info. It's likely you're running a merged usr system (as you said) without using a merged usr profile.

Sorry, having a second look I noticed the profile error, it was still on 17.1 instead of 23. Fat fingering I suppose when hitting tab :) Thanks for the heads up, I would have spent hours if not days in finding this out.
What exactly is the fix? I have the same error (and similar on multiple other packages like coreutils and systemd) running default/linux/amd64/17.1/no-multilib profile. There is same profile but with merged-user but it's marked as (dev) and iirc those shouldn't be used by endusers? I have no 23 profiles in the list at all.
