[Debichem-devel] Bug#720044: elk-lapw: /usr/bin/elk already provided by the elk package

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: elk-lapw
Version: 1.4.22-1
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

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...):

  Selecting previously unselected package elk-lapw.
  Unpacking elk-lapw (from .../elk-lapw_1.4.22-1_amd64.deb) ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/elk-lapw_1.4.22-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/elk', which is also in package elk 3.99.8-2
  dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/elk-lapw_1.4.22-1_amd64.deb


cheers,

Andreas
