Bug 145241 – dev-python/python-docs violate collision-protect

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Pupeno 2006-08-27 03:12:32 UTC]

As any other user of Gentoo I have Python 2.4 installed, but for work I need to test my code with Python 2.3. Emerging it causes collision-protect errors, in fact, the collision-protect error occurs at the python-docs packages. I am not sure if this is considered a bug, if it isn't, please let me know and I won't submit them anymore.
The error:

# emerge -van "<dev-lang/python-2.4"
PORTAGE_GPG_DIR is invalid. Removing gpg from FEATURES.

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

well, collision bugs should be submitted, except this one is slightly odd because there can only be one pydoc, so maybe python-doc shouldn't be slotted. 

in any case, since it is an /etc/env.d file, it doesn't really matter too much that there is a collision. i'll just wait for someone to agree with me before closing this.

Heh. python does violate collision-protect, but this bug is about python-docs, not python. (And because of that, I couldn't find it when searching for duplicates.)

[Comment 5 Bryan Østergaard (RETIRED) 2007-05-07 12:47:50 UTC]

I've moved the env.d installation to pkg_preinst() which fixes the collision-protect issue.
