Package: python3-carquinyol
Version: 0.118-1
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts
Control: affects -1 + sucrose

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'buster'.
It installed fine in 'buster', then the upgrade to 'bullseye' 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 .../python3-carquinyol_0.118-1_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking python3-carquinyol (0.118-1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/python3-carquinyol_0.118-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/copy-from-journal', which is also in package python-carquinyol 0.112-1
  Preparing to unpack .../sucrose_0.118-2_all.deb ...
  Unpacking sucrose (0.118-2) over (0.112-6) ...
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/python3-carquinyol_0.118-1_amd64.deb

Since python-carquinyol does no longer exist, the Breaks+Replaces can be unversioned.

cheers,

Andreas
