Package: wordnet-dev Version: 1:3.0-30 Severity: serious Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: piuparts
Hi, during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from 'testing'. It installed fine in 'testing', 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 http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces >From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): Preparing to replace wordnet-dev 1:3.0-29 (using .../wordnet-dev_1%3a3.0-30_amd64.deb) ... Unpacking replacement wordnet-dev ... dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/wordnet-dev_1%3a3.0-30_amd64.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/libwordnet.so', which is also in package wordnet 1:3.0-29 Preparing to replace wordnet 1:3.0-29 (using .../wordnet_1%3a3.0-30_amd64.deb) ...

Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/wordnet-dev_1%3a3.0-30_amd64.deb Adding Package: wordnet-dev Breaks: wordnet (<< 1:3.0-30~) Replaces: wordnet (<< 1:3.0-30~) should fix this. cheers, Andreas
