When emerging zoneminder i get an error about file collision. The same file is also known by package sys-fs/owfs-2.7_p4. Should there also be a bug reported for this package ? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -avt zoneminder 2. 3. Actual Results: >>> Installing www-misc/zoneminder-1.23.3 * checking 247 files for package collisions * This package will overwrite one or more files that may belong to other * packages (see list below). You can use a command such as `portageq * owners / <filename>` to identify the installed package that owns a * file. If portageq reports that only one package owns a file then do * NOT file a bug report. A bug report is only useful if it identifies at * least two or more packages that are known to install the same file(s). * If a collision occurs and you can not explain where the file came from * then you should simply ignore the collision since there is not enough * information to determine if a real problem exists. Please do NOT file * a bug report at http://bugs.gentoo.org unless you report exactly which * two packages install the same file(s). Once again, please do NOT file * a bug report unless you have completely understood the above message. * * Detected file collision(s): * * /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux/perllocal.pod * * Searching all installed packages for file collisions... * * Press Ctrl-C to Stop * * sys-fs/owfs-2.7_p4 * /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux/perllocal.pod * * Package 'www-misc/zoneminder-1.23.3' NOT merged due to file * collisions. If necessary, refer to your elog messages for the whole * content of the above message. >>> Failed to install www-misc/zoneminder-1.23.3, Log file: >>>
