Hi Jeremy,

No, they do not actually conflict. I think the only overlap is that
they both install a binary called "Maelstrom". This is by luck,
though. The data files don't collide simply because one package uses
share/Maelstrom, and the other share/maelstrom.

If the Maelstrom-sdl package can't be accepted in to the pkgsrc tree
until this is fixed, let me know. I don't know anything about
Maelstrom-x11, but I think it won't take much to fix the Maelstrom-sdl
package.
