Still puzzling. maildrop, netqmail, courier-imap all install the same file(s) leading to a file collision. See bug #61116 for the gory details. Basically, with -tools, we do not intall them. Tying conflicting files to a USE flag does not make me happy either but it was better than status quo. An argument can be made though to not enable the tools flag by default. -- Eray Aslan e...@gentoo.org signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Silly as I was, I removed maildrop, not knowing it was required by qmail-scanner, which I use for spam checking. OK so I emerged maildrop with the --nodeps option to get things going again, but still wondering how others have dealt with the fact that netqmail and maildrop may no longer exist on the same machine. Kind regards, Henk. Result: no mail is picked up by my server any more. Of course I could return to using teh qmail internal scanner, however then I lose the spam checking right? Thanks for your help. Kind regards, Henk.
