There's been a lot of bugs about this and I think it's been covered pretty well, so I'm just going to pick one that seems close to mark this one a duplicate. Please search for coreutils in bugzilla. Thanks. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 31918 *** I feel that the person who combinde this with bug 31918 did not read this bug carefully. My issue is not with the state of the packages. This bug deals with what happens because these packages have an incorrect relationship. When upgrading from textutils/fileutils/sh-utils to coreutils *ALL* Gentoo system with this package confusion will be left *UNUSEABLE* and *UNSTABLE*. I understand this might be my confusion but I have to reopen this bug to get it looked at again. I do not want to piss anybody off but I know there have to be 10's to 100's of users who will run into this issue. Marking as fixed because there is not real way to fix this bug. |
