Package: gir1.2-gst-plugins-bad-1.0 Version: 1.18.4-3+deb11u4 Severity: serious
Dear Maintainer, On upgrading a Buster machine to Bullseye with pitivi installed, I get the following: > Selecting previously unselected package gir1.2-gst-plugins-bad-1.0:amd64. > Preparing to unpack > .../042-gir1.2-gst-plugins-bad-1.0_1.18.4-3+deb11u4_amd64.deb ... > Unpacking gir1.2-gst-plugins-bad-1.0:amd64 (1.18.4-3+deb11u4) ... > dpkg: error processing archive > /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-GbL8DL/042-gir1.2-gst-plugins-bad-1.0_1.18.4-3+deb11u4_amd64.deb > (--unpack): > trying to overwrite > '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/girepository-1.0/GstTranscoder-1.0.typelib', which > is also in package pitivi 0.999-1+b1 That is because Buster's version of pitivi (0.999-1+b1) indeed packages this file for some reason, and there seem to be a missing relationship between those packages for the upgrade to work properly. I guess having gir1.2-gst-plugins-bad-1.0 break/replace pitivi << 2020 or so would work. I don't know if this can be solved in the pitivi package side, but if so and you prefer that please reassign. I know this is for old packages, but this is quite serious as it breaks upgrading from Buster if the pitivi package is installed. FTR, this was a two-part upgrade: upgrade followed by full-upgrade, and happened on the second step. Getting out of this is manageable as Apt ends up installing the new pitivi before aborting, so a further `apt -f install` works, but it expectedly leads to messy things removing unexpected packages that need to be re-installed after Apt solved the inconsistent state.
