Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.19.0.4
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 7.4
Dear dpkg maintainers,
it seems that dpkg is in conflict with section 7.4, where the following
is stated:
A package will not cause a conflict merely because its configuration files
are still installed; it must be at least “Half-Installed”.
In a clear changelog:
$ dpkg -l libunicode-collate-perl
....
un libunicode-collate-perl <none> <none> (no description
available)
$ grep Conflicts debian/control
Build-Conflicts: libunicode-collate-perl
$ dpkg-checkbuilddeps
dpkg-checkbuilddeps: error: Build conflicts: libunicode-collate-perl
$
Thanks
Norbert
