The ebuild of net-misc/ndtpd-3.1.5 contains the following code, which should be deleted: if ! $(grep 2010/tcp /etc/services >/dev/null 2>&1) ; then cp /etc/services ${T}/services cat >>${T}/services<<-EOF ndtp 2010/tcp # Network Dictionary Transfer Protocol EOF insinto /etc doins ${T}/services fi /etc/services will collide with baselayout, and therefore other packages shouldn't install this file (this was just discussed in the gentoo-dev ML). Also, IANA has registered port 2882 for ndtp. (FYI: app-emacs/lookup did the same, and we have just removed this piece of code there.)

It's not a collision it the literal sense, but having several packages fighting over /etc/services is probably not a good idea. See also <http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/msg_148374.xml>. > usata retired, not maintainer for this ATM. And the homepage of the package says: NDTPD は EBNETD の一部として、取り込まれました。 but ebnetd is not (yet?) in Portage. Adding the CJK team to CC, do you have any opinion about this? Is ndtpd still a functional package, or should it be removed from the tree or be replaced by ebnetd?
