Bug#767566: rhythmbox-doc: fails to upgrade from squeeze - trying to overwrite /usr/share/gtk-doc/html/rhythmbox/RBStreamingSource.html

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: rhythmbox-doc
Version: 2.97-2.1
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
'squeeze'.
It installed fine in 'squeeze', then the upgrade to 'wheezy' fails
because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a
Breaks+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...):

  Selecting previously deselected package rhythmbox-doc.
  Unpacking rhythmbox-doc (from .../rhythmbox-doc_2.97-2.1_all.deb) ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/rhythmbox-doc_2.97-2.1_all.deb (--unpack):

cheers,
