Package: uctodata
Version: 0.1.1-1
Severity: serious

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'jessie'.
It installed fine in 'jessie', 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#s-replaces

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

  Selecting previously unselected package uctodata.
  Preparing to unpack .../uctodata_0.1.1-1_all.deb ...
  Unpacking uctodata (0.1.1-1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/uctodata_0.1.1-1_all.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/etc/ucto/es.abr', which is also in package ucto 0.5.3-3.1+b1
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/uctodata_0.1.1-1_all.deb


cheers,

Andreas
