[Python-modules-team] Bug#914679: gnukhata-core: missing Breaks+Replaces: gnukhata-core-engine

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: gnukhata-core
Version: 5.25-1
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
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 .../gnukhata-core-engine_2.6.1-3_all.deb ...
  Unpacking gnukhata-core-engine (2.6.1-3) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/gnukhata-core-engine_2.6.1-3_all.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man1/gkstart.1.gz', which is also in package gnukhata-core 5.25-1
  dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
  Errors were encountered while processing:

cheers,

Andreas
