[Logcheck-devel] Bug#441504: file conflicts between packages

[Michael Ablassmeier]

Package: logcheck-database,thttpd
Severity: serious
Justification: policy violation

hi,

both thttpd and logcheck-database do ship
'/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/thttpd' but do neither conflict, nor add a
diversion, thus fail to be installed in the same environment:

 >  Unpacking thttpd (from .../thttpd_2.25b-2_amd64.deb) ...
 > dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/thttpd_2.25b-2_amd64.deb (--unpack):
 >  trying to overwrite `/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/thttpd', which is also in package logcheck-database
 > Errors were encountered while processing:
 >  /var/cache/apt/archives/thttpd_2.25b-2_amd64.deb
 > E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

bye,
