Package: gksu
Version: 2.0.2-2+b1
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts piuparts.d.o
Hi,
during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install because
it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a replaces
relation.
See policy 7.6 at
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces
From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):
Preparing to replace gksu 2.0.0-8 (using .../gksu_2.0.2-2+b1_amd64.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement gksu ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/gksu_2.0.2-2+b1_amd64.deb
(--unpack):
trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-1.0/libnautilus-gksu.so',
which is also in package nautilus-gksu 2.0.0-8
cheers,
Holger
