Currenty there is no error message any more....
except that the last install now wins this contest for one name...


if order is:
emerge cyrus-imapd
emerge dump

man restore show dump man page...


if order is:
emerge dump
emerge cyrus-imapd

man restore show cyrus imap's restore man page...

Now in stead of warning, portage now silently overwrites files....
not sure which is worse.
