--- Begin Message ---Package: mysql-client-5.0 Version: 5.0.41-2 Severity: normal I've had mysql-server-4.1 since it became a transition package; today I finally decided to upgrade. This causes the installation of mysql-client-5.0, and the removal of m-c-4.1. However, via aptitude, we have this: (Reading database ... 146552 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking mysql-client-5.0 (from .../mysql-client-5.0_5.0.41-2_i386.deb) ... dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/mysql-client-5.0_5.0.41-2_i386.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/myisam_ftdump', which is also in package mysql-client-4.1 dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe) Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/mysql-client-5.0_5.0.41-2_i386.deb [etc.] The problem is that the m-c-5.0 package has Replaces: mysql-client (<< 5.0.41-2), mysql-server and needs, additionally, "mysql-client-4.1 (<< whatever)". I worked around it by manually removing m-c-4.1 with dpkg --force-depends, but it needs to be fixed.
