You know, now that you mention is, I seem to recall that it wanted to replace mine once too. Luckily I caught it ! This is one thing where Gentoo's package system needs work. With RPM or APT, it always backs up your current file(s) and appends a meaningful name to it.
I agree, If I had been a complete newbie I would have really panicked and probably went back to Mandrake (god forbid).
