Package: xtables-addons-source Version: 1.10-1 Severity: normal I have xtables-addons-modules-2.6.26 installed. I build xtables-addons-modules-2.6.28, but when I try to install it I get
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/xtables-addons-modules-2.6.28_1.10-1+helium.1_amd64.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite `/lib/xtables/libipset_portmap.so', which is also in package xtables-addons-modules-2.6.26 Obviously there's an undeclared conflict here. This is tricky for several reasons: (1) Any two xtables-addons-modules-* packages should conflict with each other if their kernel versions are different. Is it possible to specify that in the Conflicts: line? (2) It means that we can't ever have xtables-addons-modules installed for more than one kernel version at a time. (3) In fact the conflict is more than that. It depends on the kernel revision number, i.e. helium.1 in my example. If I build xtables-addons-modules against a different kernel that has the same version (e.g. 2.6.26) but a different revision number, dpkg will let me install it whether or not it matches the installed kernel. Anyway for now the workaround is to uninstall xtables-addons-modules-2.6.26 first. This is fine, unless I have to go back and boot 2.6.26 again, then I'll have to do without xtables-addons.
