Bug#734915: cpl-plugin-xsh-doc: fails to upgrade from 'testing' - trying to overwrite /usr/share/man/man7/xsh_2dmap.7.gz

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: cpl-plugin-xsh-doc
Version: 2.3.0+dfsg-2
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
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces

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

  Selecting previously unselected package cpl-plugin-xsh-doc.
  Preparing to unpack .../cpl-plugin-xsh-doc_2.3.0+dfsg-2_all.deb ...
  Unpacking cpl-plugin-xsh-doc (2.3.0+dfsg-2) ...

cheers,

Andreas
