[DRE-maint] Bug#826107: ruby-aws: ships /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/version.rb

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: ruby-aws
Version: 2.10.2-3
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts
Control: clone -1 -2
Control: reassign -2 ruby-base32 0.3.2-2
Control: retitle -2 ruby-base32: ships /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/version.rb

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install
because it tries to overwrite other packages files.

/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/version.rb sonds like a very generic path
that probably shouldn't be shipped by any ruby extension package.

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

  Selecting previously unselected package ruby-base32.
  Preparing to unpack .../ruby-base32_0.3.2-2_all.deb ...
  Unpacking ruby-base32 (0.3.2-2) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/ruby-base32_0.3.2-2_all.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/version.rb', which is also in package ruby-aws 2.10.2-3
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/ruby-base32_0.3.2-2_all.deb


cheers,

Andreas
