Source: dpkg Version:1.22.11 Severity: wishlist Dear dpkg maintainers,
On a biarch system (amd64,i386) and using --force options (note that I am aware of the taken risk ;-)), dpkg shows: $ dpkg --force-all -i libllvm19_1%3a19.1.0-3_i386.deb (Reading database ... 722987 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to unpack libllvm19_1%3a19.1.0-3_i386.deb ... Unpacking libllvm19:i386 (1:19.1.0-3) over (1:19.1.0-3) ... dpkg: warning: overriding problem because --force enabled: dpkg: warning: trying to overwrite shared '/usr/lib/llvm-19/lib/libLLVM.so.19.1', which is different from other instances of package libllvm19:i386 I think that the given message is confusing while including the arch, here (:i386) which is the one of this package itself and not the possible other instances. Shouldn't it be better to have: 'which is different from other instances of package libllvm19'? Regards, Patrice
