Package: java-package Version: 0.52 Severity: normal Hi,
during the 0.52 cycle the package names were changed from (i.e.)
oracle-j2re1.7
to
oracle-java7-jre
While I generally think the new names are cleaner the old package is not
replaced by the new package automatically.
I can think of two ways for this to happen.
a) add appropriate Breaks+Replaces to the generated package
b) document a way to build transitional packages
I have attached our local way of doing b) here. Probably not perfect,
but seems to do the job.
Best Regards,
Bernhard
