[Bug 308738] Re: Ada GTK lib has a file that conflicts with another package

[optikos]

** Description changed:

- The error is no longer in front of me, but it was a GNOME-related file
- from the package Zunity, iirc.
+ The detailed, automated-output description of the problem appears below.
+ libgtkada2 has a file conflict at /usr/bin/gdialog with the preexisting
+ package zenity which also provides a /usr/bin/gdialog.  The zenity
+ package is part of Eclipse.  Given that Eclipse is software development
+ and that Ada is software development, it is probably not an option for
+ Eclipse/zenity or libgtkada2 package teams to allow this conflict to
+ continue under the hypothetical advice "For your machine pick either
+ Java & C & etc in Eclipse or Ada, but not both".
