I've merged a few of my improvements into collab-maint/tidy-html5.git today, and merged back most of your improvements to the original repo, thanks! The solution for bug #827716 of using Breaks: for the overwritten symlink is not ideal, because on a system which has the older version of libtidy installed, the upgrade of libtidy-dev results in the error: libtidy-dev (1:5.2.0-1.1) breaks libtidy-0.99-0 and is installed. ...followed by a dpkg error. The solution I have in the other repo is to use Replaces: for the library package and Conflicts: for the libtidy-dev package, which means that the user is warned to remove libtidy-0.99-0 first, but does not actually result in an error: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/tidy.git/tree/debian/control I feel this is more accurate because libtidy-dev does not generally fit the definition 'Replaces: libtidy-0.99-0' Would you be willing to give this alternative solution for #827716 a try? Cheers! Daniel
