(Python 3)
------------------------------
class Foo1:
	def bar(self):
		print('Foo1.bar')
	def boo(self, whatever):
		print('Foo1.boo', whatever)
		self.bar()

# class Foo2: ...(I'll let you define this one)

class DifferentBoo:
	def boo(self, whatever):
		print('DifferentBoo.boo', whatever)
		if whatever:
			self.bar()
		else:
			super().boo(whatever)

class Far1(DifferentBoo, Foo1): pass
# class Far2(DifferentBoo, Foo2): pass

------------------------------
>>> foo = Foo1()
>>> foo.bar()
Foo1.bar
>>> foo.boo(1)
Foo1.boo 1
Foo1.bar
>>> far = Far1()
>>> far.bar()
Foo1.bar
>>> far.boo(0)
DifferentBoo.boo 0
Foo1.boo 0
Foo1.bar
>>> far.boo(1)
DifferentBoo.boo 1
Foo1.bar

HTH,
