I just realized how lame my "steps to reproduce" is. It should be: 1. emerge =dev-lang/fpc-ide-2.2.4 =media-gfx/fontypython-0.4.1 Sorry. Fixed in 0.4.2.2. Thanks. |
The two packages in the summary want to install /usr/bin/fp. fpc-ide got there first, so installation of fontypython failed. Note that the prior version of fontypython worked, so it seems as though /usr/bin/fp is a new file, as far as it's concerned. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge fontypython Actual Results: This is the elog ("media-gfx:fontypython-0.4.1:20090927-073132.log" on my system): ERROR: preinst This package will overwrite one or more files that may belong to other packages (see list below). You can use a command such as `portageq owners / <filename>` to identify the installed package that owns a file. If portageq reports that only one package owns a file then do NOT file a bug report. A bug report is only useful if it identifies at least two or more packages that are known to install the same file(s). If a collision occurs and you can not explain where the file came from then you should simply ignore the collision since there is not enough information to determine if a real problem exists. Please do NOT file a bug report at http://bugs.gentoo.org unless you report exactly which two packages install the same file(s). Once again, please do NOT file a bug report unless you have completely understood the above message. Detected file collision(s): /usr/bin/fp Searching all installed packages for file collisions... Press Ctrl-C to Stop dev-lang/fpc-ide-2.2.4 /usr/bin/fp Package 'media-gfx/fontypython-0.4.1' NOT merged due to file collisions. If necessary, refer to your elog messages for the whole content of the above message. Expected Results: I expected fontypython to be successfully emerged. Both packages are the latest versions for ~amd64. I can provide my make.conf, etc., if you need it, but I think that this problem is independent of any USE flags, etc.
