[DRE-maint] Bug#1004356: ruby-gitlab-license-finder: missing Breaks+Replaces: ruby-license-finder (<< 6)

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: ruby-gitlab-license-finder
Version: 6.14.2.1-1
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install
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...):

  Selecting previously unselected package ruby-gitlab-license-finder.
  Preparing to unpack .../ruby-gitlab-license-finder_6.14.2.1-1_all.deb ...
  Unpacking ruby-gitlab-license-finder (6.14.2.1-1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/ruby-gitlab-license-finder_6.14.2.1-1_all.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/license_finder', which is also in package ruby-license-finder 2.1.2-2
  dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/ruby-gitlab-license-finder_6.14.2.1-1_all.deb

ruby-license-finder (2.1.2-2) is an RC buggy stale package in sid and
should probably be removed. It may be a predecessor of the newly packaged
ruby-gitlab-license-finder ...

The (<< 6) is based on the fact that uscan reports a new upstream
6.15.0 for src:ruby-license-finder.


cheers,

Andreas
