Description Henning Rogge 2010-02-27 09:05:26 UTC

The ebuild of app-forensics/zzuf-0.13 includes the /usr/bin/zzcat binary, which was not present in zzuf-0.12 and is part of the dev-libs/zziplib-0.13.58 ebuild.
This triggers a file collision error.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge =dev-libs/zziplib-0.13.58
2. emerge =app-forensics/zzuf-0.13

Actual Results:

 *      /usr/bin/zzcat                                                   
 *

zzuf ebuild should be modified to depend on zziplib but should not create zzcat itself.

They server a completely different purpose.

zzuf upstream has renamed it to zzat to avoid this:
http://caca.zoy.org/changeset/4364

No release yet, we could consider doing an mv zzcat zzat as long as this is the case. Or use an svn snapshot:
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/z/zzuf/zzuf_0.13.svn20100215.orig.tar.gz

Fixed this properly by moving zzcat to zzat, but additionally fixing the tests and all the man pages as well.
