As an entirely theoretical but possible example, if I have xmms still in overlay and installed, and happen to mention that an audio problem occurs in xmms and (say) amarok, the fact that I have xmms merged, particularly if it's still from an "official overlay" shouldn't be reason to close the bug happening also in amarok, altho that sort of closure does happen when package are installed independently or from "Joe Blow's overlay". -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
