Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install
because it tries to overwrite other packages files.

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

  Preparing to unpack .../libgtkdatabox-doc_1%3a0.9.3.1-1.1_all.deb ...
  Unpacking libgtkdatabox-doc (1:0.9.3.1-1.1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/libgtkdatabox-doc_1%3a0.9.3.1-1.1_all.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/share/doc/libgtkdatabox-dev/AUTHORS', which is also in package libgtkdatabox-dev 1:0.9.3.1-1.1+b1
  dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/libgtkdatabox-doc_1%3a0.9.3.1-1.1_all.deb


cheers,

Andreas
