Package: nginx-common
Version: 1.22.1-8
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#overwriting-files-and-replacing-packages-replaces

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

  Preparing to unpack .../nginx-common_1.22.1-8_all.deb ...
  Unpacking nginx-common (1.22.1-8) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/nginx-common_1.22.1-8_all.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/etc/default/nginx', which is also in package nginx 1.22.1-7
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/nginx-common_1.22.1-8_all.deb


cheers,

Andreas
