[Pkg-haskell-maintainers] Bug#677577: libghc-hsx-dev: fails to upgrade from squeeze - trying to overwrite /usr/bin/trhsx

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: libghc-hsx-dev
Version: 0.9.1-2
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 'sid' 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 unselected package libghc-hsx-dev.
  Unpacking libghc-hsx-dev (from .../libghc-hsx-dev_0.9.1-2+b2_amd64.deb) ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libghc-hsx-dev_0.9.1-2+b2_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/trhsx', which is also in package libghc6-hsx-dev 0.7.0-1+b1


cheers,

Andreas
