[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#920359: obitools: ships ecoPCR(1), ecofind(1) manpages already shipped in the ecopcr package

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: obitools
Version: 1.2.12+dfsg-1
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install
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...):

  Selecting previously unselected package obitools.
  Preparing to unpack .../obitools_1.2.12+dfsg-1_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking obitools (1.2.12+dfsg-1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/obitools_1.2.12+dfsg-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man1/ecoPCR.1.gz', which is also in package ecopcr 1.0.0+dfsg-1
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/obitools_1.2.12+dfsg-1_amd64.deb


cheers,

Andreas
