This is a serious bug as it makes installation fail. Possible
solutions are to have the two packages conflict, to rename the common
file in one of the two packages, or to remove the file from one
package and have this package depend on the other package. File
diversions or a Replace relation are another possibility.

This bug will be assigned to both packages. If you, the maintainers of
the two packages in question, have agreed on which of the packages will
resolve the problem please reassign the bug to that package.

-Ralf.

Version: 2.10.6-1

This bug was closed with the upload of version 2.10.6-1. The changelog says:

python-dmidecode (2.10.3-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Upstream release - separate setup.py for debug and non-debug versions of
    python-dmidecode (Closes: #516358).

but it seems that 2.10.3-1 was never uploaded, it was just on
mentors.debian.net.

-Ralf.
