It looks like the version in the new changelog entry should probably be `2` instead of having an ubuntu prefix, since the prefix is already built into the version number.
Beyond that, it looks like the patch is just removing all of the man pages that would normally be copied to the staging directory, so that they don't make it into the final deb. I don't see anything in your patch that would be causing it to build a much newer version of gdb. Did it build the older version of gdb before you applied your patch? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to gdb in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1267680 Title: package gdb-arm-none-eabi (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man1/gdb.1.gz', which is also in package gdb 7.6.50.20131218-0ubuntu1 Status in gdb package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gdb-arm-none-eabi package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Was makin sure every thing worked and install properly for ya peeps from Synaptic Package Manager and found a few errors in the process got 2 uploaded along with this report also uploaded info to the "error tracker" which is named: 077cac62-1be5-11e3-88e6-e4115b0f8a4a which is what i also got while installing hope this helps ya =) peace SRU [Impact] Currently it is not possible to install this package alongside gdb. See also comments #8 and #9. [Test case] Attempt to install `gdb-arm-none-eabi` where `gdb` is already installed.
