Package: compiz-plugins-default Version: 1:0.9.13.0+16.10.20160818.2-5 Severity: important User: [email protected] Usertags: piuparts Control: affects -1 + compiz-dev
Hi, during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from 'squeeze'. It installed fine in 'squeeze', then the upgrade via 'wheezy' and 'jessie' to 'stretch' fails because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a Breaks+Replaces relation. See policy 7.6 at https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces >From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): Selecting previously unselected package compiz-plugins-default. Preparing to unpack .../compiz-plugins-default_1%3a0.9.13.0+16.10.20160818.2-5_amd64.deb ... Unpacking compiz-plugins-default (1:0.9.13.0+16.10.20160818.2-5) ... dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/compiz-plugins-default_1%3a0.9.13.0+16.10.20160818.2-5_amd64.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite '/usr/share/compiz/commands.xml', which is also in package compiz-core 0.8.4-4 There was no compiz version wheezy and jessie, so the squeeze packages were kept installed. According to the changelog compiz-plugins-default was introduced in 1:0.9.4+bzr20110606-0ubuntu3 There may be more B+R missing, but piuparts didn't run into them, yet. (And specifically searching for them is non-trivial due to the two "skipped" releases.) It would be great if these Breaks+Replaces could be added for stretch. cheers, Andreas
