I was wondering about this too.
I think the issue is that the overwrite appears to happen from the top
level directory (e.g. /apps), and content is literally replaced with
exactly what is in the overwriting bundle. So in even if you separate
out /apps/foo and /apps/foo/gui/css into different bundles, depending on
the order of install, you'll only have one of the directory structures
present at the end. I stopped using ;overwrite:=true for this reason.
I verified this now by adding the overwrite option to the espblog sample
& all my custom scripts disappeared from apps (can someone else confirm
this behavior?)
This may be desirable behavior in some situations, but many applications
& modules are going to install content starting at /apps, so perhaps
there should be a third option like 'update:=true', that does only an
additive overwrite?

Hi Andreas,

is it possible to load overlapping initial content from multiple bundles
when overwriting is enabled? E.g. if I have the following bundles with
content:
IIRC the initial content tree should be disjoint for different bundles
if overwrite is set.
bundle "core": content/apps/foo/index.html
bundle "gui": content/apps/foo/gui/css/foo.css
When I install either of these bundles, the content of the other module
is removed. Is there any way around this, or do I have to disable
overwriting?
So maybe in your core bundle you should just provide
content/apps/foo/index.html while in the gui bundle you should provide
contetn/apps/foo/gui.
Hope this helps.
Regards
Felix
