Package: bash, bash-completion
Severity: serious

Hi,

I got this on the buildd:
Unpacking bash-completion (from .../bash-completion_1%3a1.1-3_all.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing /home/buildd/build/chroot-unstable/var/cache/apt/archives/bash-completion_1%3a1.1-3_all.deb
(--unpack): trying to overwrite `/etc/bash_completion', which is also in package bash

On the system:
excelsior:~# ls -l /etc/bash_completion
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 215907 Jul  5  2006 /etc/bash_completion
excelsior:~# dpkg --search /etc/bash_completion
bash: /etc/bash_completion

This is with bash 4.0-7.


Kurt
