Package: snort-doc Version: 2.9.15.1-2 Severity: serious User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: piuparts
Hi, during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from 'stable'. It installed fine in 'stable', 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 https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#overwriting-files-and-replacing-packages-replaces This test intentionally skipped 'testing' to find file overwrite problems before packages migrate from 'unstable' to 'testing'. >From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...): Preparing to unpack .../snort-doc_2.9.15.1-2_all.deb ... Unpacking snort-doc (2.9.15.1-2) ... dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/snort-doc_2.9.15.1-2_all.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite '/usr/share/doc/snort/README.PLUGINS', which is also in package snort 2.9.7.0-5 dpkg-deb: error: paste subprocess was killed by signal (Broken pipe) Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/snort-doc_2.9.15.1-2_all.deb This is probably caused by a behavioral change of dh_installdocs in recent debhelper compat levels. cheers, Andreas
