[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#959955: libsis-jhdf5-jni: ships /usr/lib/jni/libjhdf5.so already provided by libjhdf5-jni

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: libsis-jhdf5-jni
Version: 19.04.0+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...):

  Preparing to unpack .../libsis-jhdf5-jni_19.04.0+dfsg-1_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking libsis-jhdf5-jni (19.04.0+dfsg-1) ...

   trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/jni/libjhdf5.so', which is also in package libjhdf5-jni 2.11.0+dfsg-4

  Errors were encountered while processing:

cheers,

Andreas
