Package: python3-pyqt5-dbg Version: 5.0-1 Severity: serious User: trei...@debian.org Usertags: edos-file-overwrite
Architecture: amd64 Distribution: experimental Hi, automatic installation tests of packages that share a file and at the same time do not conflict by their package dependency relationships has detected the following problem: Selecting previously unselected package python3-pyqt5-dbg. Unpacking python3-pyqt5-dbg (from .../python3-pyqt5-dbg_5.0-1_amd64.deb) ... dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/python3-pyqt5-dbg_5.0-1_amd64.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/debug/.build-id/d2/db2b86fd9c6dcd2d829a976e42816a4efbbcd4.debug', which is also in package python3-dbus.mainloop.pyqt5-dbg 5.0-1 dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe) Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/python3-pyqt5-dbg_5.0-1_amd64.deb This is a serious bug as it makes installation fail, and violates sections 7.6.1 and 10.1 of the policy. An optimal solution would consist in only one of the packages installing that file, and renaming or removing the file in the other package. Depending on the circumstances you might also consider Replace relations or file diversions. If the conflicting situation cannot be resolved then, as a last resort, the two packages have to declare a mutual Conflict. Please take into account that Replaces, Conflicts and diversions should only be used when packages provide different implementations for the same functionality. Here is a list of files that are known to be shared by both packages (according to the Contents file for sid/amd64, which may be slightly out of sync): usr/lib/debug/.build-id/1b/ab5c16ea883e98ee584ea8d662e94f9f7180db.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/30/f840a400a3e9f1f674da95d6f07e3bb4f2cb38.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/3a/ac57527c5d59e047c933119b68c4529790de32.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/46/9f4d99da8d9d1f2663cbd772e19c5b49d8faca.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/59/81763507c34b96bb89dd25a899112b027a8bda.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/7f/2ce5ff0264697568665dca4a6b64e7b13f9756.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/8b/e0b539f174324393d2108869f3b9b90accbd59.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/c3/00e509fdbf9f7164b39dc5bda8cd4b9f4e10fb.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/cd/7596edcc692612d8e7d2b4a75d58e27b6bdab3.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/d2/db2b86fd9c6dcd2d829a976e42816a4efbbcd4.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/e3/3aff7341bd0cef638e87ac539f68c56c031899.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/2e/12b279d5f3f3d2a42ff1c9c69a8f80233860d3.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/e6/e7a6b0afbc6d7cf7abb0ac7389294aaa7916a9.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/1b/08e2eab64913e8aaf79ef025018834c8274bd9.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/6e/18a4b567bf4934298669f972a2cacd6fa19cee.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/88/ae47ac640050ade073bc7b128efec835d8b3d8.debug usr/lib/debug/.build-id/fa/78c283dbf9ca548cac9f51c6919d7fc4d02330.debug Cheers, Andreas PS: for more information about the detection of file overwrite errors of this kind see http://edos.debian.net/file-overwrites/. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
