[Product-Developers] bug with portetRenderer?

[Dylan Jay]

Hi,

In collective.carousel is the following definition

     <plone:portlet
         name="portlet.Carousel"
         interface=".carousel.ICarouselPortlet"
         assignment=".carousel.Assignment"
         view_permission="zope2.View"
         edit_permission="plone.portlet.collection.AddCollectionPortlet"
         renderer=".carousel.Renderer"
         addview=".carousel.AddForm"
         editview=".carousel.EditForm"
         />

carousel.Renderer etc all inherit from  
plone.portlet.collection.collection and the Renderer uses its own  
template

class Renderer(base.Renderer):
     render = ViewPageTemplateFile('carousel.pt')


This seems all fine and works well until I install a theme with the  
following zcml

     <plone:portletRenderer
     portlet="plone.portlet.collection.collection.ICollectionPortlet"
     layer=".interfaces.IThemeSpecific"
     template="templates/collection.pt"
     />

This changes the renderer for ICarouselPortlet as well as  
ICollectionPortlet and all my carousel portlets appear as collection  
portlets even though they add and edit forms still remain as carousel  
forms.

Is that expected?
