[Debian-ha-maintainers] Bug#800923: libcorosync-common-dev: fails to upgrade from 'jessie' - trying to overwrite /usr/include/corosync/corodefs.h

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: libcorosync-common-dev
Version: 2.3.5-1
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
'jessie'.
It installed fine in 'jessie', 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...):

  Selecting previously unselected package libcorosync-common-dev:amd64.
  Preparing to unpack .../libcorosync-common-dev_2.3.5-1_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking libcorosync-common-dev:amd64 (2.3.5-1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/libcorosync-common-dev_2.3.5-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/include/corosync/corodefs.h', which is also in package corosync-dev 1.4.6-1.1
  Errors were encountered while processing:

cheers,
