I do, but I do not believe bad things might happen. |

It is. But I forgot about the protect-owned feature. I thought -collision- |
25 |
protect would act stronger and imply it, but apparently it does not. So, |
26 |
'FEATURES=-protect-owned emerge ati-drivers' might have worked better. If |
27 |
not, 'FEATURES="-collision-protect -protect-owned" emerge ati-drivers' would |
28 |
have worked in any case. |

Yes, that's okay. After all, the file is still there, it's just now being |
34 |
generated by the ati-driver. I wouldn't worry too much. |
