[Android-tools-devel] Bug#1034982: android-libnativehelper: missing Breaks+Replaces for android-libnativehelper-dev when upgrading from bullseye

[Andreas Beckmann]

Followup-For: Bug #1034982
Control: found -1 29.0.6-27

Hi,

this bug was not fixed correctly, yet.

The .so link actually moved from android-libnativehelper-dev to
android-libnativehelper (that's the unusual direction, since usually the
.so belongs to the -dev package). (Commit 306d8baf that wanted to fix
this issue describes it the other way around.)

debdiff excepts:

$ debdiff android-libnativehelper_10.0.0+r36-2_amd64.deb android-libnativehelper_29.0.6-27_amd64.deb

Files in second .deb but not in first
-------------------------------------
-rw-r--r--  root/root   /usr/share/lintian/overrides/android-libnativehelper
lrwxrwxrwx  root/root   /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/android/libnativehelper.so -> libnativehelper.so.0

$ debdiff android-libnativehelper-dev_10.0.0+r36-2_amd64.deb android-libnativehelper-dev_29.0.6-27_amd64.deb

Files in second .deb but not in first
-------------------------------------
-rw-r--r--  root/root   /usr/include/android/nativehelper/libnativehelper_api.h
-rw-r--r--  root/root   /usr/share/doc/android-libnativehelper-dev/README

Files in first .deb but not in second
-------------------------------------
-rw-r--r--  root/root   /usr/include/android/nativehelper/module_api.h
-rw-r--r--  root/root   /usr/share/doc/android-libnativehelper/README
lrwxrwxrwx  root/root   /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/android/libnativehelper.so -> libnativehelper.so.0

So you actually need

Package: android-libnativehelper
Breaks: android-libnativehelper-dev (<< 29)
Replaces: android-libnativehelper-dev (<< 29)   <== this is currently missing

and in the -dev package you could revert to

Package: android-libnativehelper-dev
Breaks: android-libnativehelper (<< 10.0.0+r36-1~)
Replaces: android-libnativehelper (<< 10.0.0+r36-1~)

since no files were moved in the other direction.
(That would make apt's job a bit simpler.)
