Bug#718009: bzflag-client: fails to upgrade from 'wheezy' - trying to overwrite /usr/share/applications/bzflag.desktop

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: bzflag-client
Version: 2.4.2+ds1-4
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'wheezy'.
It installed fine in 'wheezy', then the upgrade to 'jessie' fails
because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a
Breaks+Replaces relation.

See policy 7.6 at
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

  Selecting previously unselected package bzflag-client.
  Unpacking bzflag-client (from .../bzflag-client_2.4.2+ds1-4_amd64.deb) ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/bzflag-client_2.4.2+ds1-4_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/share/applications/bzflag.desktop', which is also in package bzflag-data 2.0.16.20100405+nmu1
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/bzflag-client_2.4.2+ds1-4_amd64.deb


cheers,

Andreas
