This usually happens when I am trying to install slotted packages like |
22 |
amarok-1.94 |
23 |
|
24 |
I am using amarok-1.4.10 and I am trying to install amarok-1.94. They are on |
25 |
different slots but portage keeps complaining about collisions. Since I do not |
26 |
have collision-protect on FEATURES, portage MUST merge the package even if |
27 |
it warns me... |
