Package: openjdk-11-jre Version: 11.0.3+1-1 Severity: important Tags: patch
Hi, while analyzing piuparts stretch -> buster distupgrade tests, I found some cases where packages from stretch were not upgraded to the new version in buster, but the old version was kept installed instead. This is usually caused by some obsolete packages not getting removed, because they are part of a package group with a rather high score. One such problematic group is the old eclipse stack from stretch that prevents some java packages from being upgraded to buster if it does not get removed. I successfully tested that adding Breaks: eclipse-platform (<< 3.8.1-11) to openjdk-11-jre fixes these upgrade paths. The old eclipse packages get removed and everything else gets upgraded as expected. Andreas
