Package: squid-common Version: 2.6.1-3 Severity: normal squid_2.5.14-1 and squid-common_2.6.1-3 both contain the following file: ./usr/share/doc/squid/examples/ip_user-example.conf
squid_2.6.1-3 depends on squid-common_2.6.1-3 but squid-common_2.6.1-3 does not conflict with squid_2.5.14-1, so the Smart Package Manager (I didn't try apt-get/aptitude/synaptic/etc.) tries to upgrade squid-common without first uninstalling squid. This failed because of the conflicting filename, so the whole upgrade is aborted. If I try to upgrade squid using the Smart Package Manager, I get the following: # smart --shell Smart Package Manager 0.41 - Shell Mode Loading cache...
