From 9d16e1eda061f02009263ca7c0150b57042d3881 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zac Medico Date: Wed, 17 Oct 2007 02:34:54 +0000 Subject: Bug #196043 - Update the file collision ewarn notice to try and clarify the cases when a bug should NOT be filed. Also, recommend the new `portageq owners / ` command since it works properly even when paths are ambiguous due to symlinked directories. svn path=/main/trunk/; revision=8155 --- pym/portage/dbapi/vartree.py | 24 +++++++++++++++--------- 1 file changed, 15 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) (limited to 'pym') diff --git a/pym/portage/dbapi/vartree.py b/pym/portage/dbapi/vartree.py index 2d2e916bd..0636b65e9 100644 --- a/pym/portage/dbapi/vartree.py +++ b/pym/portage/dbapi/vartree.py @@ -1810,15 +1810,21 @@ class dblink(object): " Add \"collision-protect\" to FEATURES in make.conf" + \ " if you would like the merge to abort in cases like this." if self.settings.get("PORTAGE_QUIET") != "1": - msg += " If you have determined that one or more of the" + \ - " files actually belong to another installed package then" + \ - " go to http://bugs.gentoo.org and report it as a bug." + \ - " Be sure to identify both this package and the other" + \ - " installed package in the bug report.
