x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2 won't compile due to a file conflict,
but portageq does not see it.
Background:
I've been masking out the new xorg server, but things have started to
break, so I'm giving in.
The process has been shaky, and I'm currently running something
different from what I've compiled -- an unstable and worrisome
condition.
The last piece seems to be the ATI drivers, which have forced me to
reconfigure the kernel 2 or 3 times. Fortunately I was able to do
that before any of the recompilations that are now out of sync with my
running system.
The problem: Compiling the driver errors out with this message
>>> Installing x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2
* checking 126 files for package collisions
* This package will overwrite one or more files that may belong to other
* packages (see list below). You can use a command such as `portageq
* owners / <filename>` to identify the installed package that owns a
* file. If portageq reports that only one package owns a file then do
* NOT file a bug report. A bug report is only useful if it identifies at
* least two or more packages that are known to install the same file(s).
* If a collision occurs and you can not explain where the file came from
* then you should simply ignore the collision since there is not enough
* information to determine if a real problem exists. Please do NOT file
* a bug report at http://bugs.gentoo.org unless you report exactly which
* two packages install the same file(s). Once again, please do NOT file
* a bug report unless you have completely understood the above message.

>>> Failed to install x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2, Log file:
The log has no information not in the error message above. The
portageq command suggested in the message names only one package:
xorg-server, but not the ati driver. But the file is clearly listed
earlier among the files it will check for collisions.
Anybody know how to work around this?
