Package: libf2fs-format-dev
Version: 1.11.0-1
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
'stretch'.
It installed fine in 'stretch', then the upgrade to 'buster' 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/#overwriting-files-and-replacing-packages-replaces

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

  Preparing to unpack .../libf2fs-format-dev_1.11.0-1_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking libf2fs-format-dev:amd64 (1.11.0-1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/libf2fs-format-dev_1.11.0-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/include/f2fs-tools/f2fs_format_utils.h', which is also in package libf2fs-dev:amd64 1.7.0-1.1
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/libf2fs-format-dev_1.11.0-1_amd64.deb


As I interpreted the changelog entry, the packages were split in 1.11.0-1


cheers,

Andreas
