[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#790515: theseus-examples: fails to upgrade from 'testing' - trying to overwrite /usr/share/doc/theseus/examples/1s40.pdb.gz

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: theseus-examples
Version: 3.3.0-1
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
'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...):
