Is it valid to do something like:
move media-plugins/mytharchive media-plugins/mythplugins
move media-plugins/mythbrowser media-plugins/mythplugins
move media-plugins/mythgallery media-plugins/mythplugins
move media-plugins/mythgame media-plugins/mythplugins
move media-plugins/mythmovies media-plugins/mythplugins
move media-plugins/mythnews media-plugins/mythplugins
move media-plugins/mythweather media-plugins/mythplugins
Thanks.

No, that's not really how it's intended to be used. You'll probably have
to put blockers in media-plugins/mythplugins to block all the old
packages that install the same files.

Dang. Didn't think so but I figured I'd ask. Thanks for the quick reply.

Theoretically (i've done a quick test on this and it seems true) a
single-"!" blocker is enough that one package will on upgrade replace
all these others without user intervention being required (assuming
these packages aren't in @world, of course), and it won't cause file
collisions.
Unrelatedly curious, why the package merge?

Trying to make MythTV maintenance easier on myself since I couldn't
find a maintainer. Upstream changed to SVN a long while back and with
that changed moved all the plugins into one bundle called mythplugins.
They've now switched to git and with that change I decided to
modernize a little bit.
mythtv.git a few top level directories, each of which is packaged as
its own tarball which makes backporting patches extra fun. The
mythplugins tarball (mythtv.git/mythplugins) contains additional
plugins that are found in different git repos.
They're still unique snowflakes with their git usage.
