Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'sid'.
It installed fine in 'sid', then the upgrade to 'experimental' fails.

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

  Preparing to unpack .../autoconf2.13_2.13-64_all.deb ...
  Removing 'diversion of /usr/bin/autoconf to /usr/bin/autoconf2.50 by 
autoconf2.13'
  dpkg-divert: error: rename involves overwriting '/usr/bin/autoconf' with
    different file '/usr/bin/autoconf2.50', not allowed
  dpkg: error processing archive 
/var/cache/apt/archives/autoconf2.13_2.13-64_all.deb (--unpack):
   subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 2
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/autoconf2.13_2.13-64_all.deb


The removal of the obsolete diversions has to be performed after the new
package was unpacked - and the obsolete wrapper from the old version is
gone. At that point the renaming will no longer collide.


cheers,

Andreas
