[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#948597: fasta3-doc: missing Breaks+Replaces: fasta3 (<< 36.3.8h)

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: fasta3-doc
Version: 36.3.8h-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 .../fasta3-doc_36.3.8h-1_all.deb ...
  Unpacking fasta3-doc (36.3.8h-1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/fasta3-doc_36.3.8h-1_all.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/share/doc/fasta3/fasta_guide.pdf', which is also in package fasta3 36.3.8g-1
  dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
  Errors were encountered while processing:

cheers,

Andreas
