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#s-replaces

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

  Selecting previously unselected package python-qgis.
  (Reading database ... 16341 files and directories currently installed.)
  Preparing to unpack .../python-qgis_2.8.1+dfsg1-1~exp1_amd64.deb ...

   trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pyspatialite/dump.py', which is also in package python-pyspatialite 3.0.1-6
  Errors were encountered while processing:

cheers,

Andreas
