[Pkg-phototools-devel] Bug#960439: libopenexr-dev: missing Breaks+Replaces: libilmbase-dev (<< ???)

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: libopenexr-dev
Version: 2.5.0-1
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
'sid' to 'experimental'.
It installed fine in 'sid', then the upgrade to 'experimental' 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 .../libopenexr-dev_2.5.0-1_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking libopenexr-dev (2.5.0-1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/libopenexr-dev_2.5.0-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/include/OpenEXR/Iex.h', which is also in package libilmbase-dev:amd64 2.3.0-6
  dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/libopenexr-dev_2.5.0-1_amd64.deb

There is no libilmbase-dev upload, yet, that does not ship /usr/include/OpenEXR/Iex.h
Please use the version (+ suffix '~')  of such an upload for the B+R.


cheers,

Andreas
