No. Please re-read policy (specifically 10.1) - you don't get to
conflict with other packages just because you both want to use the
same file path.
I think that Gennaro "fixed" it that way because we were aware of this
issue (which is here since before Lenny, fwiw) and we agreed with
Gaudenz
(sinfo's co-maintainer) to find a real solution to implement in
Jessie+1.
Gaudenz has also some trouble contacting the other co-maintainer of
sinfo
and wasn't able to explain its name. So we were a bit stuck. Besides,
since
the conflicts is already present in previous releases of Debian and
since
we need to support upgrades, don't we need a conflicts statement
anyway?
(Maybe a versioned one if the situation is sorted out before the freeze
but still)
So, is it acceptable to keep this workaround for Jessie and work on a
better
one for Jessie+1? That way, we hope to find time enough time to work
this
in coordination with both upstreams.
Kind regards,
