Its a warning for a devel-branch ;-)

I extended PRE_BUILD little more, the symlinks work now and man is not
overwritten anymore. TeXLive still installs/overwrites some TeX-related
binaries that are also provided by different spells:

$ gaze install texlive |grep /usr/bin/ |xargs -n1 gaze from | \
  grep -v texlive
lcdf-typetools-2.79:/usr/bin/cfftot1
detex-2.8:/usr/bin/detex
dvi2tty-5.3.1:/usr/bin/disdvi
dvi2tty-5.3.1:/usr/bin/dvi2tty
dvipng-1.12:/usr/bin/dvigif
dvipdfmx-20090708:/usr/bin/dvipdfmx
dvipng-1.12:/usr/bin/dvipng
dvipdfmx-20090708:/usr/bin/ebb
dvipdfmx-20090708:/usr/bin/extractbb
lacheck-1.26:/usr/bin/lacheck
lcdf-typetools-2.79:/usr/bin/mmafm
lcdf-typetools-2.79:/usr/bin/mmpfb
lcdf-typetools-2.79:/usr/bin/otfinfo
lcdf-typetools-2.79:/usr/bin/otftotfm
lcdf-typetools-2.79:/usr/bin/t1dotlessj
lcdf-typetools-2.79:/usr/bin/t1lint
lcdf-typetools-2.79:/usr/bin/t1rawafm
lcdf-typetools-2.79:/usr/bin/t1reencode
lcdf-typetools-2.79:/usr/bin/t1testpage
lcdf-typetools-2.79:/usr/bin/ttftotype42

Should texlive conflict with these spells or should we remove these
parts from texlive?
