Bug#914686: libcoin-dev: ships /usr/include/Inventor/* which are already in inventor-dev

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: libcoin-dev
Version: 4.0.0~CMake~6f54f1602475+ds1-1~exp1
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
'sid' to 'experimental'.
It installed fine in 'sid', then the upgrade to 'experimental' fails
because it tries to overwrite other packages files.

Looks like libcoin-dev now installs the headers of an embedded copy of
inventor-dev.
