... I've cleared that problem now by renaming the binary in my package.

Please add a Conflicts against winrm_0.0~git20160323.0752679-1.

Dear Dan,

Thanks for getting in touch - sorry for not replying sooner. "winrm"
is the name of a Microsoft Windows command, so users might expect a
Linux command with the same name to perform a similar function. I'm
not familiar with what the command in your package does, and it's a
while since I did the original txwinrm packaging so I'm not sure off
hand which of our commands is closer to the Windows winrm.

I'll try to find some time in the next week or so to refresh my memory
of the details, and consider what an appropriate name for the command
in my package would be.

Hope that's soon enough?

Thanks.

Christopher

Hi Christopher,

we have a binaries-have-conflict between our packages and we have to negotiate 
how to handle
this.

I standpoint is, masterzen-winrm was in first (2016-04-14), so I would like to 
ask if
you could change your package to solve this. I would change mine if this would 
be the
other way around. Is that alright with you?

[pkg-go] Bug#848234: txwinrm, winrm: error when trying to install together

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: txwinrm,winrm
Severity: serious
User: trei...@debian.org
Usertags: edos-file-overwrite
Control: found -1 0.0~git20160323.0752679-1
Control: found -1 1.1.28-1

Hi,

automatic installation tests of packages that share a file and at the
same time do not conflict by their package dependency relationships has
detected the following problem:

  Selecting previously unselected package winrm.
  Preparing to unpack .../winrm_0.0~git20160323.0752679-1_amd64.deb ...
  Unpacking winrm (0.0~git20160323.0752679-1) ...
  dpkg: error processing archive 
/var/cache/apt/archives/winrm_0.0~git20160323.0752679-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/winrm', which is also in package txwinrm 
1.1.28-1
  dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/winrm_0.0~git20160323.0752679-1_amd64.deb

This is a serious bug as it makes installation fail, and violates
sections 7.6.1 and 10.1 of the policy. An optimal solution would
consist in only one of the packages installing that file, and renaming
or removing the file in the other package. Depending on the
circumstances you might also consider Replace relations or file
diversions. If the conflicting situation cannot be resolved then, as a
last resort, the two packages have to declare a mutual
Conflict. Please take into account that Replaces, Conflicts and
diversions should only be used when packages provide different
implementations for the same functionality.

Here is a list of files that are known to be shared by both packages
(according to the Contents file for sid/amd64, which may be
slightly out of sync):

  /usr/bin/winrm

This bug is assigned to both packages. If you, the maintainers of
the two packages in question, have agreed on which of the packages will
resolve the problem please reassign the bug to that package. You may
also register in the BTS that the other package is affected by the bug.

Cheers,

Andreas
