[Pkg-ime-devel] Bug#700710: fcitx-libs-gclient: fails to upgrade from 'testing' - trying to overwrite /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfcitx-gclient.so.0.1

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: fcitx-libs-gclient
Version: 1:4.2.7-1
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts
Control: affects -1 + fcitx-libs-dev

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 fcitx-libs-gclient:amd64.
  Unpacking fcitx-libs-gclient:amd64 (from .../fcitx-libs-gclient_1%3a4.2.7-1_amd64.deb) ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/fcitx-libs-gclient_1%3a4.2.7-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfcitx-gclient.so.0.1', which is also in package fcitx-libs:amd64 1:4.2.4.1-7


cheers,

Andreas
