Package: freebsd-glue Version: 0.0.1 Severity: serious User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: piuparts replaces-without-breaks
Hi, during a test with piuparts and EDOS tools I noticed your package causes removal of files that also belong to another package. This is caused by using Replaces without corresponding Breaks. The installation sequence to reproduce this problem is apt-get install freebsd-buildutils # (1) apt-get install freebsd-glue apt-get remove freebsd-glue # (2) The list of installed files at points (1) and (2) should be identical, but the following files have disappeared: /usr/include/freebsd/aio.h /usr/include/freebsd/asm/stat.h /usr/include/freebsd/bits/stat.h /usr/include/freebsd/bits/utmp.h /usr/include/freebsd/bits/utmpx.h /usr/include/freebsd/linux/icmp.h /usr/include/freebsd/linux/sysctl.h /usr/include/freebsd/machine/endian.h /usr/include/freebsd/netdb.h /usr/include/freebsd/paths.h /usr/include/freebsd/sys/cdefs.h /usr/include/freebsd/sys/elf_common.h /usr/include/freebsd/sys/endian.h /usr/include/freebsd/sys/errno.h /usr/include/freebsd/sys/param.h /usr/include/freebsd/sys/stat.h /usr/include/freebsd/sys/stdint.h /usr/include/freebsd/sys/time.h /usr/include/freebsd/sys/types.h /usr/include/freebsd/unistd.h /usr/include/freebsd/vis.h /usr/lib/freebsd/awk -> ../../bin/original-awk /usr/lib/freebsd/gmake -> ../../bin/make /usr/lib/freebsd/sh -> /bin/dash This is a serious bug violating policy 7.6, see http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces and also see the footnote that describes this incorrect behavior http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/footnotes.html#f53 The freebsd-glue package has the following relationships with freebsd-buildutils: Conflicts: n/a Breaks: n/a Replaces: freebsd-buildutils (<< 9.0-10) Depends: freebsd-buildutils >From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): 0m26.0s ERROR: FAIL: After purging files have disappeared: /usr/include/freebsd/aio.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/asm/stat.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/bits/stat.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/bits/utmp.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/bits/utmpx.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/linux/icmp.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/linux/sysctl.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/machine/endian.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/netdb.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/paths.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/sys/cdefs.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/sys/elf_common.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/sys/endian.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/sys/errno.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/sys/param.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/sys/stat.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/sys/stdint.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/sys/time.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/sys/types.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/unistd.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/include/freebsd/vis.h owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/lib/freebsd/awk -> ../../bin/original-awk owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/lib/freebsd/gmake -> ../../bin/make owned by: freebsd-glue /usr/lib/freebsd/sh -> /bin/dash owned by: freebsd-glue 0m26.0s ERROR: FAIL: After purging files have been modified: /var/lib/dpkg/info/freebsd-buildutils.list not owned cheers, Andreas
