--- Begin Message ---Package: libfl2 Version: 2.6.4-6 Severity: serious User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: piuparts replaces-without-breaks Control: affects -1 + libfl-dev Hi, during a test with piuparts and DOSE 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 libfl-dev/testing # (1) apt-get install libfl2/sid apt-get remove libfl2 # (2) The list of installed files at points (1) and (2) should be identical, but the following files have disappeared: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfl.so.2 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfl.so.2.0.0 This is a serious bug violating policy 7.6, see https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/#overwriting-files-and-replacing-packages-replaces and also see the footnote that describes this incorrect behavior https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ (old: footnotes.html#f53) [footnote permalink broken (#879048), search for /To see why/] The libfl2 package has the following relationships with libfl-dev: Conflicts: n/a Breaks: n/a Replaces: libfl-dev (<= 2.6.4-4) >From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): 2m43.6s ERROR: FAIL: After purging files have disappeared: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfl.so.2 -> libfl.so.2.0.0 owned by: libfl2:amd64 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfl.so.2.0.0 owned by: libfl2:amd64 There are more Replaces without corresponding Breaks, probably add Breaks for all of them. cheers, Andreas
