Package: libimage-transport0d,libimage-transport-dev
Version: 1.12.0-4
Severity: serious

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install
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#overwriting-files-and-replacing-packages-replaces

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

  Selecting previously unselected package libimage-transport-dev:amd64.
  Preparing to unpack .../119-libimage-transport-dev_1.12.0-4_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking libimage-transport-dev:amd64 (1.12.0-4) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-kFwMPi/119-libimage-transport-dev_1.12.0-4_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/share/image_transport/default_plugins.xml', which is also in package libimage-transport0d:amd64 1.12.0-4
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-kFwMPi/119-libimage-transport-dev_1.12.0-4_amd64.deb


cheers,

Andreas
