I think you need to add "Conflicts: mkpasswd" as well, since we want the old mkpasswd package to be entirely replaced and removed. See Debian Policy 7.6.2.
Also, it would be helpful to include a note in the changelog saying that this change needs to be kept until after the next LTS release. -- upgrade fails: trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/mkpasswd', which is also in package mkpasswd 5.0.6ubuntu1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/632791 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
