Package: python3-pairtools-examples
Version: 1.0.2-1
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 .../python3-pairtools-examples_1.0.2-1_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking python3-pairtools-examples:amd64 (1.0.2-1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/python3-pairtools-examples_1.0.2-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/share/doc/python3-pairtools/examples/example_pipeline.sh', which is also in package python3-pairtools 0.3.0-2+b2
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/python3-pairtools-examples_1.0.2-1_amd64.deb


Some more examples were moved to the -examples package in 1.0.2-1
but corresponding B+R were forgotten.


cheers,

Andreas
