Package: python-grapefruit-doc
Version: 0.1~a3+dfsg-5
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 .../python-grapefruit-doc_0.1~a3+dfsg-5_all.deb ...
  Unpacking python-grapefruit-doc (0.1~a3+dfsg-5) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/python-grapefruit-doc_0.1~a3+dfsg-5_all.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/share/doc/python-grapefruit/README', which is also in package python-grapefruit 0.1~a3+dfsg-4
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/python-grapefruit-doc_0.1~a3+dfsg-5_all.deb


cheers,

Andreas
