Installation fails if a file (icons, appdefaults etc) already exists #494

It goes like usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/libreoffice7.1-writer.png usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/libreoffice7.1-calc.png ==> ERROR: File conflict found!

If the files are removed, installation works.

on which package? libreoffice?

Pelle-B commented 3 years ago

All packages. If an iconfile with the same name is already in place, same with /etc/X11/appdefaults

emmett1 commented 3 years ago

ofcourse if file already in place it will conflict. scratchpkg (also with most package manager exist) does not allow multiple packages provide same file. you should not install files into system outside package manager, it can cause this conflict error.
