Package: gdb-doc
Version: 7.7.1-1
Severity: serious
User: debian...@lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts
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:
/var/cache/apt/archives/gdb-doc_7.7.1-1_all.deb
cheers,
Andreas
Attaching patch with the agreement of Héctor, that he will apply later.
Cheers.
