[Pkg-ganeti-devel] Bug#718553: ganeti-doc: fails to upgrade from 'testing' - trying to overwrite /usr/share/doc-base/ganeti

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: ganeti-doc
Version: 2.7.1-2
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
'testing'.
It installed fine in 'testing', then the upgrade to 'sid' 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 ganeti-doc.
  Unpacking ganeti-doc (from .../ganeti-doc_2.7.1-2_all.deb) ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/ganeti-doc_2.7.1-2_all.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/share/doc-base/ganeti', which is also in package ganeti2 2.5.2-1
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/ganeti-doc_2.7.1-2_all.deb


cheers,

Andreas
