Bug#714603: python3-morse-simulator: fails to upgrade from wheezy - trying to overwrite /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/morse/__init__.py

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: morse-simulator,python3-morse-simulator
Version: 1.0.1-2.1
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
'wheezy'.
It installed fine in 'wheezy', then the upgrade to 'jessie' fails
because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a
Breaks+Replaces relation.

See policy 7.6 at
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces

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

  Selecting previously unselected package python3-morse-simulator.
  Unpacking python3-morse-simulator (from .../python3-morse-simulator_1.0.1-2.1_amd64.deb) ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/python3-morse-simulator_1.0.1-2.1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/morse/__init__.py', which is also in package morse-simulator 0.5.2-1
  dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe)


cheers,

Andreas
