I'm not handling the firebird browser stuff, so I can't address all of |
| 2 |
your concerns, but technically speaking, there would be no name |
| 3 |
collision in portage. Firebird the database is dev-db/firebird. |
| 4 |
Firebird the browser would be net-www/firebird, net-www/firebird-bin, |
| 5 |
etc. I don't know which one would be chosen if you type "emerge |
| 6 |
firebird". To be sure to get the right package, you'd have to specify |
| 7 |
the category on the emerge commandline too ("emerge |
| 8 |
net-www/firebird"). Naming it MozillaFirebird would be a violation of |
| 9 |
Gentoo's development policy because of the capitalization |
| 10 |
(mozillafirebird or mozilla-firebird would be ok). |
