Bug#800921: libphonenumber7-java: fails to upgrade from 'jessie' - trying to overwrite /usr/share/java/geocoder.jar

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: libphonenumber7-java
Version: 7.0.11-2
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
'jessie'.
It installed fine in 'jessie', 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
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces

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

  Selecting previously unselected package libphonenumber7-java.

cheers,
