Comment (by pulkomandy):
Bumping priority because this makes using haikuports annoying.
I guess packagefs is right to complain that another package with the same
name is activated, but should notice that it is going to be replaced?
I guess one option is to make sure the "change activation" request sent to
packagefs has the disabling of the old package first, and enabling of the
new one only after that? Or it should be a "reactivate package" instead of
an "activate package"?
