Package: coreutils
Version: 8.20-1
Severity: serious

Usertags: piuparts
Control: affects -1 + bootcd
Hi,
during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'testing'.
It installed fine in 'testing', then the upgrade to 'sid' fails
because it tries to overwrite other packages files without declaring a
Breaks/Replaces relation.
See policy 7.6 at
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces
