Hi Boris,
I sent two emails with two separate patches, one directly to you and one
to emulation@, since I wasn't sure who is a member of that alias. Sorry
for the confusion on my end.
Perhaps there is a very simple solution - do you think that all
linux_base ports should have the following CONFLICTS line?
CONFLICTS= linux_base-*
That way, all Linux emulation layers will conflict with every other one,
and we'll be covered for any future revisions.
Let me know what you think, and I can commit the changes after
generating a new patch for your review, if you like.
Cheers,
Greg
