[Bug 280188] Re: libgtkada2-bin : trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/gdialog', which is also in package zenity

[Philip Muskovac]

Thanks for reminding me of the existance of this bug Trim ^^. I use a self-compiled version for gtkada since then where i removed gdialog from the build (At least I don't use it). I looked into what you suggested, but it seems that gdialog_ada provides a very small subset of what zenity provides. So not only the commands are different, the syntax is different as well. Looking at gdialog_zenity it's a perl script that's supposed to convert something. I don't know perl so that's all I found out. What I'm curious about is why gdialog_ada was called gdialog2 back in hardy so libgtkada2-bin could be installed with zenity without a problem.
Another thing I noticed Is that the zenity guys don't seem to have noticed that this bug exists so I'll add a bug for zentiy here. If they can't come up with a solution on their side they should at least add a conflict on libgtkada2-bin.
