Package: exfat-utils Version: 1.3.0-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
'exfatprogs' and 'exfat-utils' provide different implementations of the same tools. as a consequence (as they probably install the files of the same name), the two packages declare a "Conflicts" situtaion. this is suboptimal, as it breaks some dependency chains on my system e.g. i want to be able to install 'forensics-extra' (depending on 'exfatprogs') and 'exfat-fuse' (depending on 'exfat-utils') at the same time. i think it would be great if both 'exfat-utils' and 'exfatprogs' could use the update-alternatives mechanism to resolve file-conflicts and allow the user to pick their preferred programs while having both packages installed. -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'oldstable-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'oldstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.15.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages exfat-utils depends on: ii libc6 2.32-4 Versions of packages exfat-utils recommends: ii exfat-fuse 1.3.0-2 exfat-utils suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
