This should fix most of these upgrade failures: https://piuparts.debian.org/wheezy2jessie/disappeared_files_after_purge_error.html 2m25.1s ERROR: FAIL: After purging files have disappeared: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.7/ not owned /usr/share/doc/gcc-4.7-base/ not owned /usr/share/doc/gcc-4.7-base/README.Debian.amd64.gz not owned /usr/share/doc/gcc-4.7-base/TODO.Debian not owned /usr/share/doc/gcc-4.7-base/changelog.Debian.gz not owned /usr/share/doc/gcc-4.7-base/copyright not owned /var/lib/dpkg/info/gcc-4.7-base:amd64.list not owned /var/lib/dpkg/info/gcc-4.7-base:amd64.md5sums not owned gcc-4.7-base will be removed if during an upgrade from wheezy to jessie gcc-4.8-base gets installed. This ill happen in many cases, except when just upgrading the running apt-get distupgrade in the minimal wheezy chroot that would only pull in gcc-4.9-base. So lets make the behavior consistent by adding the same Breaks to gcc-4.9-base. This does not prevent installation of a newer gcc-4.7-base (from sid) in jessie. The Breaks in gcc-4.8-base was added according to #736607 to smoothen upgrade paths from wheezy to jessie and giving apt some incentives to rather remove some obsolete packages than keeping them installed and not upgrading a lot of other packages instead.
