Bug#793961: timgm6mb-soundfont: fails to upgrade from 'testing' - trying to overwrite /usr/share/sounds/sf2/TimGM6mb.sf2

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: timgm6mb-soundfont
Version: 1.3-1
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
'testing'.
It installed fine in 'testing', 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
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces

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

  Selecting previously unselected package timgm6mb-soundfont.

cheers,
