[DRE-maint] Bug#657541: ruby-blankslate: fails to upgrade from 'testing' - trying to overwrite ...

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: ruby-blankslate
Version: 2.1.2.4-1
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
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 ruby-blankslate.
  Unpacking ruby-blankslate (from .../ruby-blankslate_2.1.2.4-1_all.deb) ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/ruby-blankslate_2.1.2.4-1_all.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/blankslate.rb', which is also in package ruby-builder 3.0.0-1


cheers,

Andreas
