Package: dpkg Version: 1.9.21 Severity: grave I could have sworn I already filed this bug, but 'bugview dpkg' doesn't show it, so here we go (again?)
Preparing to replace dpkg 1.9.21 (using .../archives/dpkg_1.10_i386.deb) ... Unpacking replacement dpkg ... dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/dpkg_1.10_i386.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/dpkg-query', which is also in package dpkg-iasearch dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe) E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg exited unexpectedly For a package as central as dpkg, you'd think the maintainers would make a simple check to determine if new-to-the-package binaries conflicted with the existing Debian namespace. Shameful. (Is there a fault in the BTS, as I'm rather certain I've already filed about this? I doubt I'd dream about such a strange thing.) -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Kernel Version: Linux phoenix 2.4.18 #1 Sun Mar 3 20:15:51 UTC 2002 i586 unknown Versions of the packages dpkg depends on: ii libc6 2.2.5-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and Timezone ii libncurses5 5.2.20020112a- Shared libraries for terminal handling ii libstdc++2.10- 2.95.4-9 The GNU stdc++ library -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
