With the recent discussion about the conflicting README file
in the kernel, I decided to check for other files that are
owned by more than one package. I have attached the output
of my quick-and-dirty script.
I scans only the installed packages, but that should cover
most issues.
Most of the time, the problem is just a few files, but there
are some more severe cases:
146 duplicates in openssl-0.9.6-7mdk and openssl-devel-0.9.6-7mdk
96 duplicates in XFree86-4.0.3-3mdk and XFree86-devel-4.0.3-3mdk
76 duplicates in bonobo-0.37-2mdk and libbonobo2-devel-0.37-2mdk
76 duplicates in icewm-1.0.7-2mdk and icewm-light-1.0.7-2mdk
58 duplicates in kdeaddutils-2.1-1mdk and kdegames-2.1.1-1mdk
32 duplicates in sane-backends-1.0.4-2mdk and sane-1.0.4-2mdk
The sum of these files is about 4 MB for me that get installed from
more than one RPM.
