I'm going for the easiest solution: finding ALL clashes is hard. It takes a=
=20
long time and we're sure to miss something. Especially something that isn't=
=20
detected during the installation, like upgrading shared files and everythin=
g.

I *really* don't like policies set on stone that people can't touch. If the=
=20
best solution is to change the policies, then I expect distributions to do=
=20
it. However, I am not saying it is -- let's see what happens when we fix th=
e=20
clashes that were raised in this thread.

I posted a proposal on the subject a while ago and I stopped caring about i=
t=20
because I found it too complex. There's a lot more than the files posted=20
here.
