[Pkg-sugar-devel] Bug#874417: sugar-icon-theme, sugar-themes: fails to upgrade from 'stretch' - trying to overwrite ...

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: sugar-icon-theme,sugar-themes
Version: 0.110.0-2
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
'stretch'.
It installed fine in 'stretch', then the upgrade to 'buster' 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#s-replaces
