Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'wheezy'.
It installed fine in 'wheezy', then the upgrade to 'jessie' fails
because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a
Breaks+Replaces relation.

See policy 7.6 at
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces

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

  Selecting previously unselected package gdb-doc.
  Unpacking gdb-doc (from .../gdb-doc_7.7.1-1_all.deb) ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/gdb-doc_7.7.1-1_all.deb 
(--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man1/gdb.1.gz', which is also in package 
gdb-minimal 7.4.1+dfsg-0.1
  dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
  Errors were encountered while processing:

cheers,

Andreas
