[Pkg-haskell-maintainers] Bug#656428: libghc-hsql-doc: fails to upgrade from squeeze - trying to overwrite ...

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: libghc-hsql-doc
Version: 1.8.1-1
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
squeeze. It installed fine in squeeze, then the upgrade to wheezy fails
because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a
replaces relation.

See policy 7.6 at
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

  Selecting previously unselected package libghc-hsql-doc.
  Unpacking libghc-hsql-doc (from .../libghc-hsql-doc_1.8.1-1_all.deb) ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libghc-hsql-doc_1.8.1-1_all.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/share/doc/haskell-hsql-doc/html/src/hscolour.css', which is also in package libghc6-hsql-doc 1.7.1-4


cheers,

Andreas
