Hi, something strange is going on with this bug that I can't make sense of. Dpkg complains about an overwrite conflict despite a correct Replaces field:
Package: ia32-libgssapi-krb5-2 Architecture: amd64 Version: 1.7dfsg~beta3-1~22 Replaces: ia32-libkrb53 (<< 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-7~22), ia32-libs, ia32-libs-gtk But when ia32-libkrb53_1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-5lenny1~22_amd64.deb is unpacked dpkg complains: Unpacking ia32-libkrb53 (from ..../ia32-libkrb53_1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-5lenny1~22_amd64.deb) ... dch warning: new version (1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-5lenny1~22) is less than the current version number (1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-5lenny1). dpkg: error processing /var/cache/ia32-apt/archives/ia32-libkrb53_1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-5lenny1~22_amd64.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite `/usr/lib32/libgssapi_krb5.so.2.2', which is also in package ia32-libgssapi-krb5-2 Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/ia32-apt/archives/ia32-libkrb53_1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-5lenny1~22_amd64.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) Afaik the right thing to prevent this is a Replaces entry but that is already there. So what is going on? Note that the users ia32-apt-get is from unstable, libgssapi-krb5-2 is from testing/unstable and libkrb53 is from stable. So there is a bit of a mix of releases. Would it matter if dpkg is from stable? MfG Goswin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
