Bug#829150: minetest-data: fails to upgrade from 'jessie' - trying to overwrite /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/minetest.svg

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: minetest-data
Version: 0.4.14+repack-4
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts
Control: affects -1 + minetest-dbg

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'jessie'.
It installed fine in 'jessie', then the upgrade to 'stretch' 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/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces

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

  Preparing to unpack .../minetest-data_0.4.14+repack-4_all.deb ...
  Unpacking minetest-data (0.4.14+repack-4) over (0.4.10+repack-1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/minetest-data_0.4.14+repack-4_all.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/minetest.svg', which is also in package minetest 0.4.10+repack-1
  dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe)


cheers,

Andreas
