[Touch-packages] [Bug 146398] Re: gdebi ignores Replaces directive in case of Conflict
Here is an updated foo-packages.tar.gz file to reproduce this issue. The updates mostly deal with changes in Debian policy such as adding debian/compat and updating DH_COMPAT. The new foo-packages.tar.gz also contains pre-built packages which you are free to use or delete and rebuild. ** Attachment added: "Test packages" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-apt/+bug/146398/+attachment/5387168/+files/foo-packages.tar.gz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to python-apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/146398 Title: gdebi ignores Replaces directive in case of Conflict Status in python-apt package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: gdebi I have encountered this problem with the CrossOver Office (http://www.codeweavers.com/products/cxoffice/) packages.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 146398] Re: gdebi ignores Replaces directive in case of Conflict
This 12+ years old bug is still present in gdebi 0.9.5.7 (as shipped in Ubuntu 16.10 to the current 20.04 and Debian 10 for instance). Given that gdebi 0.9.5.7 was released in 2015 I have to ask the question: Is gdebi still maintained? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to python-apt in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/146398 Title: gdebi ignores Replaces directive in case of Conflict Status in python-apt package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: gdebi I have encountered this problem with the CrossOver Office (http://www.codeweavers.com/products/cxoffice/) packages.
