[Android-tools-devel] Bug#848037: android-libdex-dev: fails to upgrade from 'testing' - trying to overwrite /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/android/libdex.so

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: android-libdex-dev
Version: 7.0.0+r1-2
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
'testing'.
It installed fine in 'testing', then the upgrade to 'sid' fails
because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a
Breaks+Replaces relation.

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

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

  Preparing to unpack .../07-android-libdex-dev_7.0.0+r1-2_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking android-libdex-dev (7.0.0+r1-2) over (6.0.1+r55-1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-HWj6oN/07-android-libdex-dev_7.0.0+r1-2_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/android/libdex.so', which is also in package android-libdex 6.0.1+r55-1


cheers,

Andreas
