Package: love-doc
Version: 0.9.1-2

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 love-doc.
  Unpacking love-doc (from .../love-doc_0.9.1-2_all.deb) ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/love-doc_0.9.1-2_all.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/share/doc/love/demos/lovalanche.love', which is also in package love 0.8.0-1+deb7u1
  dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/love-doc_0.9.1-2_all.deb


cheers,

Andreas
