Hi Thomas,

thanks for your bug report.

Le mercredi 6 mars 2013 19:47:45, Thomas Rechberger a écrit :
Did an upgrade from a default squeeze install to wheezy on Vmware
Workstation 8. The apt-get dist-upgrade process failed during installation
of gir1.2-cogl-1.0 because gir1.0-clutter-1.0 is still installed.
The installation was in a non working state after reboot and lost also the
network connection.
Upgrade process was followed as written in:
http://www.debian.org/releases/wheezy/i386/release-notes/ch-upgrading.de.ht
ml

After dpkg -r --force-depends gir1.0-clutter-1.0 the upgrade was able to
continue.

I suggest that the old gir1.0-clutter-1.0 should be removed by new package
before the new one is installed.
Right. Adding a conflicts should do it. They share one file and should thus
not be unpacked at the same time. See attached patch.

Unfortunetely, I couldn't reproduce the bug on my system so I can't check that
this patch work.

Best regards,

Thomas
