Package: python3-numpy Version: 1:1.24.2-1 Severity: important I am upgrading a system (laptop) from bullseye to bookworm. Everything was upgraded fully in bullseye, and all foreign (-dmo) packages removed before starting the upgrade. There were some old packages onthe system, include quite a few pthon-* (python2) packages.
I did apt upgrade --without-new-pkgs first (as recomended on debian.org/releases/bookworm/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html) and that went fine, but the subsequent apt full-upgrade failed with: Preparing to unpack .../python3-numpy_1%3a1.24.2-1_amd64.deb ... Unpacking python3-numpy (1:1.24.2-1) ... dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/python3-numpy_1%3a1.24.2-1_amd64.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/f2py', which is also in package python-numpy 1:1.16.2-1 dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe) Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/python3-numpy_1%3a1.24.2-1_amd64.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) trying to remove python-numpy didn't work either: sudo dpkg -r python-numpy dpkg: dependency problems prevent removal of python-numpy: python-gtk2 depends on python-numpy (>= 1:1.13.1). python-gtk2 depends on python-numpy-abi9; however: Package python-numpy-abi9 is not installed.

Removing python-gtk2 (2.24.0-5.1+b1) ... Removing python-numpy (1:1.16.2-1) ... worked, and then I was able to carry on with apt --fix-broken-install This was a totally normal upgrade (albeit with a few old packages lyng around) , so should have worked. I guess there should be a conflict added to prevent this, which would force the old python-numpy to be removed before the new python3-numpy goes in?
