[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#820024: libgzstream-dev: missing Breaks+Replaces: libxdmf-dev (<< 2.1.dfsg.1-14)

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: libgzstream-dev
Version: 1.5+dfsg-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...):

  Selecting previously unselected package libgzstream-dev.
  Preparing to unpack .../libgzstream-dev_1.5+dfsg-1_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking libgzstream-dev (1.5+dfsg-1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/libgzstream-dev_1.5+dfsg-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/include/gzstream.h', which is also in package libxdmf-dev 2.1.dfsg.1-13
  Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.22-4) ...
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/libgzstream-dev_1.5+dfsg-1_amd64.deb

The older versions of libxdmf-dev shipped libgzstream-dev's content.


cheers,

Andreas
