Package: msxpertsuite-massxpert Version: 5.8.5-1 Severity: serious User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: piuparts
Hi, during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from 'stable'. It installed fine in 'stable', then the upgrade to 'sid' 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#overwriting-files-and-replacing-packages-replaces This test intentionally skipped 'testing' to find file overwrite problems before packages migrate from 'unstable' to 'testing'. From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): Preparing to unpack .../msxpertsuite-massxpert_5.8.5-1_amd64.deb ... Unpacking msxpertsuite-massxpert (5.8.5-1) ... dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/msxpertsuite-massxpert_5.8.5-1_amd64.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/massxpert', which is also in package massxpert 3.6.1-1 dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe) Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/msxpertsuite-massxpert_5.8.5-1_amd64.deb cheers, Andreas
