[gentoo-portage-dev] [PATCH 0/4] Proper fix for colliding (un)compressed files

[Michał Górny]

Hi,

Here's a proper fix for the problem, as promised.  I've also taken
the liberty of reverting the ugly hack that is no longer necessary,
and reintroducing parallel compression as requested earlier.

I've also increased verbosity of the messages.  If precompressed files
are found, Portage now explicitly prints the list of them.  If colliding
files are found, Portage explicitly prints which files collide and asks
the ebuild maintainer to fix that.

It no longer tries to silently ignore this major issue and/or discard
some of the files but explicitly fails, given that there are no valid
circumstances for ebuilds to install colliding files.  It only indicates
a serious issue with the ebuild, and Portage should explicitly force
the developer to fix it.

Best regards,
Michał Górny
