Package: libpbbam-dev
Version: 0.18.0+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#overwriting-files-and-replacing-packages-replaces

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

  Preparing to unpack .../8-libpbbam-dev_0.18.0+dfsg-1_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking libpbbam-dev (0.18.0+dfsg-1) over (0.7.4+ds-1+b1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-IoLOpc/8-libpbbam-dev_0.18.0+dfsg-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpbbam.so', which is also in package libpbbam:amd64 0.7.4+ds-1+b1
  Errors were encountered while processing:

cheers,

Andreas
