Hello Carlos Almeida,

I totally agree with you that field is redefined in hr_contract module.

Reason is : hr_contract adds more functionality to field "Marital
Status" by setting it many2one so you can add more statuses if needed.

Installing hr module only, includes "Marital Status" as selection field. You cannot add new status in it.
hr_contract module comes with this facility. 

However, this really needs improvement. As far as stable is concerned, we cannot add/remove fields so easily.
So, it has been improved in trunk. 

You may check the RC1 release of OpenERP from
http://www.openerp.com/downloads.

Hope this clears.
Thanks.

Fields duplication re-creation between hr modules

Status in OpenObject Addons Modules: Confirmed

Bug description:
I notice that the field hr.employee.marital, is redefined (duplicated from hr) by module hr_contract in the partner view and database, in the last one by the name hr.employee.marital_status.
Is there a reason for that?
Or it is kind of a bug of module hr_contract?
Because fields duplicating could lead to end user confusion and frustration, if not well documented!

Thank in advance.
