Package: csoundqt
Version: 0.8.0-1
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts
Control: affects -1 + qutecsound

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 csoundqt.
  Unpacking csoundqt (from .../csoundqt_0.8.0-1_amd64.deb) ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/csoundqt_0.8.0-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/share/pixmaps/qtcs.xpm', which is also in package qutecsound 0.6.1-2
  dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
  Preparing to replace qutecsound 0.6.1-2 (using .../qutecsound_0.8.0-1_all.deb) ...

  Errors were encountered while processing:

cheers,

Andreas
