Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install
because it tries to overwrite other packages files.

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 libcmor-dev.
  Preparing to unpack .../31-libcmor-dev_3.2.1-3_amd64.deb ...

  Errors were encountered while processing:

libcmor-dev clearly shouldn't ship a duplicate copy of libjson-c-dev's
content, it should rather depend on that package.


cheers,

Andreas
