BUG: conflict between gsed, popt and coreutils

Description

Upon trying to install gsed, I got:

Error: Target com.apple.activate returned: Image error: /opt/local/lib/charset.alias is being used by the active coreutils port. Please deactivate this port first.

It seems that there is a conflict that somehow needs to be resolved.

Steps to reproduce (with the caveat that I didn't try them): 1) port install coreutils 2) port install gsed 3) assuming that gsed isn't already installed, you should have a conflict between the two

I took the liberty of assigning the bug to (the one I think is) the gsed maintainer, and Ccing the coreutils maintainer. I hope this is the 'proper' way to do things - I'm new to bugzilla :)

Not only gsed and coreutils want to install /opt/local/lib/charset.a, so does popt. I don't know why it is so, but it seems to be more than merely a conflict between two ports.

As a result reasssigned it to the default component owner.

Assigning to toby because he's probably most likely to look at this.

Looks fixed. coreutils and popt remove the file, gsed never actually installs it...
