you can delete (or "not install") mktemp, but this is not the only
conflict with the new coreutils, /bin/arch from util-linux is
the next conflict on the list. The new "mktemp" from coreutils is
99% compatible to the old one, the only thing I found missing is
the "-V" option to display the version number which does not make
too much sense now that the binary lives inside a larger package
with it's own version number.

We'll hopefully clean this up today.
