Package: loggerhead
Version: 1.19~bzr494-1
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 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 loggerhead-breezy.
  Preparing to unpack .../loggerhead-breezy_1.20~bzr551+dfsg-1_all.deb ...
  Unpacking loggerhead-breezy (1.20~bzr551+dfsg-1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/loggerhead-breezy_1.20~bzr551+dfsg-1_all.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/loggerhead-serve', which is also in package loggerhead 1.19~bzr494-1
  dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/loggerhead-breezy_1.20~bzr551+dfsg-1_all.deb

loggerhead is the newer package, uploaded a few days ago, while the last
loggerhead-breezy upload was nearly a year ago.

cheers,

Andreas
