I agree that you cannot coinstall the packages. However, you can unpack them concurrently and doing so produces a failure. Such unpacking legitimately may happen during an upgrade and this upgrade scenario is what the bug report is about. > The varnish-* packages will be removed from the archive in a few days. Are you saying that varnish will be removed from trixie? > Do I still need to keep around these bugs? Yes, because there is a broken upgrade and as long as you don't add the necessary breaks+replaces, the packages shall not migrate. Helmut
