Re: [trinity-devel] Icon conflicts in tdeaddons-tdeartwork-tdesdk (which one to choose?)

Darrell, We have run into another icon conflict error. I know some package managers do not care and will let you overwrite icons, fonts, etc.., but Arch's pacman package manager will not let you overwrite anything in the filesystem on the theory that "No package should conflict with another". Of course you can --force any install and removal, but that defeats the purpose of proper packaging. There are a couple of TDE icons that are present in several different packages. If one package is installed before any other containing the same icons, then install of the subsequent packages fails. At issue are: tde-tdeaddons-14.0.0-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz opt/trinity/share/icons/locolor/32x32/apps/ktimemon.png opt/trinity/share/icons/locolor/16x16/apps/ktimemon.png tde-tdeartwork-14.0.0-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz opt/trinity/share/icons/locolor/32x32/apps/ktimemon.png opt/trinity/share/icons/locolor/32x32/apps/kbabel.png opt/trinity/share/icons/locolor/16x16/apps/ktimemon.png opt/trinity/share/icons/locolor/16x16/apps/kbabel.png tde-tdesdk-14.0.0-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz opt/trinity/share/icons/locolor/32x32/apps/kbabel.png opt/trinity/share/icons/locolor/16x16/apps/kbabel.png So this has to be handled from a packaging standpoint on arch. Fortunately, the package that contains all icons at issue is tdeartwork. For Arch, I will write conditional checks for tdeaddons and tdesdk to avoid the issue. How are the other distros handling this? Can TDE move these conflicting icons to tdeartwork exclusively.
