With both sys-apps/coreutils-6.10-r1 and sys-apps/util-linux-2.12r-r8 installed on a system, portage reports that there is a collision involving /usr/bin/arch and /usr/share/man/man1/arch.1.bz2. The output of portageq owners is as follows: squall Explore # portageq owners / /usr/bin/arch sys-apps/util-linux-2.12r-r8 /usr/bin/arch sys-apps/coreutils-6.10-r1 /usr/bin/arch squall Explore # portageq owners / /usr/share/man/man1/arch.1.bz2 sys-apps/util-linux-2.12r-r8 /usr/share/man/man1/arch.1.bz2 sys-apps/coreutils-6.10-r1 /usr/share/man/man1/arch.1.bz2 A hypothetical patch to correct coreutils-6.10-r1 is attached.
