Bug 223155 – mail-mta/courier with sys-apps/ucspi-tcp - file collision in/usr/bin/addcr

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: CONFIRMED ---

[Description Steffen Schaumburg 2008-05-22 02:41:09 UTC]

Hi,
my portage found a collision, portageq says this:

mail-mta/courier-0.53.2-r1
	/usr/bin/addcr
sys-apps/ucspi-tcp-0.88-r16
	/usr/bin/addcr

I figured the flags of these packages might help:
[ebuild   R   ] mail-mta/courier-0.53.2-r1  USE="crypt fam mysql nls spell -fax -ipv6 -ldap -mailwrapper -norewrite -pam -postgres" 0 kB 
[ebuild   R   ] sys-apps/ucspi-tcp-0.88-r16  USE="-doc (-selinux)" 0 kB

I installed courier as MTA, that was when the collision was reported. Not sure what the other package is, dependency of sth. I should note that I had courier-imap and postfix before, but unmerged them before merging courier.
depclean gives a bunch of results but neither of the colliders

Anything else I can do/get let me know

Thanks, Steffen

Issue still present with mail-mta/courier-0.59.0, currently preventing install of ucspi-tcp.

[Comment 2 Rodrigo Severo 2010-03-23 13:22:01 UTC]

Problem still present with sys-apps/ucspi-tcp-0.88-r16 and mail-mta/courier-0.62.2

[Comment 3 MAL 2010-11-23 10:48:54 UTC]

Problem still present 8 months on.

Can we have a suggested workaround?  Does one particular version of addcr work for both packages?

I don't think so. I believe the solution is to rename addcr of one package.

there do have people talk about this on SF last year
https://sourceforge.net/p/courier/mailman/message/35365637/

debian did an approach to solve this by divert addcr from ucspi-tcp

hacked ucspi-tcp ebuild

[Comment 9 andcycle-gentoo 2017-02-08 13:36:13 UTC]

just provide simple hacked ebuild to solve the issue if anyone need a quick solution,

courier-0.76.4.ebuild added an extra USE flag called [collide-ucspi-tcp]
ucspi-tcp-0.88-r18.ebuild also added an extra USE flag called [collide-courier]

when courier doesn't have [collide-ucspi-tcp] flag, it block ucspi-tcp,
if [collide-ucspi-tcp] set for courier, it require ucspi-tcp[collide-courier],

when ucspi-tcp[collide-courier] is set,
it will install uscpi-tcp ver "addcr" as "addcr.uscpi-tcp" to avoid collision with courier.
