Package: nano Version: 2.8.6-2 Severity: serious User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: piuparts
Hi, during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from 'testing'. It installed fine in 'testing', then the upgrade to 'sid' fails because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a Breaks+Replaces relation. See policy 7.6 at https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces >From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): Selecting previously unselected package nano. Preparing to unpack .../nano_2.8.6-2_amd64.deb ... Unpacking nano (2.8.6-2) ... dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/nano_2.8.6-2_amd64.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite '/usr/share/info/nano.info.gz', which is also in package nano-tiny 2.8.6-1 dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe) Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/nano_2.8.6-2_amd64.deb This bug is the opposite direction of #869876. Since you obviously moved a file from nano-tiny to nano, you need corresponding versioned Breaks+Replaces. cheers, Andreas
