Description Brett Procter 2009-10-23 02:29:35 UTC
emerge of mail-mta/netqmail-1.05-r8 fails after emerging and sys-apps/man-pages-3.22.
Both packages want to install /usr/share/man/man3/error.3.bz2
Strangely, on another system I have which has been progressively updated, equery says that both packages own the file.  The file is clearly from man-pages, though.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge sys-apps/man-pages-3.22
2. emerge mail-mta/netqmail-1.05-r8
3. part 2 fils with file collision warning on /usr/share/man/man3/error.3.bz2

Actual Results:  
the first of the two packages emerged is installed, the second isn't


Expected Results:  
both packages to install, netqmail sans the *.3 files


Since the qmail utility functions and the libraries they get packed into don't seem to be in the /image directory and therefore aren't actually installed on the system, the <man>.3 files probably don't need to be installed either.

Suggest ebuild change:
-    doman *.[1-8]
+    doman *.[1,5,8]
(assuming doman can cope with that syntax)

WORKAROUND: install netqmail first and rm /usr/share/man/man3/error.3.bz2

Sorry for the duplicate.  Bug 137207 didn't come up in a search for 'netqmail'. Bizarre.
