Package: libpod-tests-perl
Version: 0.18-1
Severity: serious
Tags: patch
Justification: Policy 7.5.1
Pod::Tests was created upstream to split out the Pod::* module namespace
from Test::Inline in the new major version 2. libtest-inline-perl
2.103-1 depends on libpod-tests-perl to provide these modules for
backwards compatibility.
However, when the user has libtest-inline-perl 0.16-1 (or older)
installed, and the new libtest-inline-perl 2.103-1 and libpod-tests-perl
0.18-1 are to be installed, the following happens:
| Selecting previously deselected package libpod-tests-perl.
| Unpacking libpod-tests-perl (from .../libpod-tests-perl_0.18-1_all.deb) ...
| dpkg: error processing
/var/cache/apt/archives/libpod-tests-perl_0.18-1_all.deb (--unpack):
| trying to overwrite `/usr/share/perl5/Pod/Tests.pm', which is also in
package libtest-inline-perl
| Preparing to replace libtest-inline-perl 0.16-1 (using
.../libtest-inline-perl_2.103-1_all.deb) ...
| Unpacking replacement libtest-inline-perl ...
| Errors were encountered while processing:
| /var/cache/apt/archives/libpod-tests-perl_0.18-1_all.deb
libpod-tests-perl should now conflict with (and replace) old versions of
libtest-inline-perl.
Patch attached.

Description: Perl extension for excts embedded tests and code examples from POD
This is a specialized POD viewer to extract embedded tests and code examples
from POD. It doesn't do much more than that.
