            Bug ID: 252305
           Summary: devel/util-linux: Many conflicts
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any

util-linux conflicts with several other ports:

misc/getopt
sysutils/flock
sysutils/hardlink

getopt and hardlink are different software with the same names as util-linux. 
We will have to rename one binary or the other to allow parallel installation.

flock is just a subset of util-linux.  It can be discarded when util-linux port
is more usable.

For now I would suggest optioning conflicting binaries and defaulting them off.
