[gentoo-user] portage-2.2 + collision protect
Hello, I ve upgraded to portage-2.2 . From that time i am having a problem. When portage finds a collision between two files during the merge time , it complains and doesnt merge the new package. The weird thing is that i do not have collision-protect under FEATURES on /etc/make.conf file Any idea how to deal with that? Thanks -- Markos Chandras
