  • Bug#1101114: inn2 and sm have an undeclared file conflict on /usr/share

    From Helmut Grohne@21:1/5 to All on Sun Mar 23 14:40:02 2025
    Package: inn2,sm
    Severity: serious
    User: [email protected]
    Usertags: fileconflict

    inn2 and sm both attempt to install /usr/share/man/man1/sm.1.gz. This
    may result in an unpack error from dpkg.

    mmdebstrap --verbose --variant=essential unstable /dev/null --include=inn2,sm

    Preparing to unpack .../79-sm_0.29-1_amd64.deb ...
    Unpacking sm (0.29-1) ...
    dpkg: error processing archive /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-FgpAQz/79-sm_0.29-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
    trying to overwrite '/usr/share/man/man1/sm.1.gz', which is also in package inn2 (2.7.3~20250201-1)
    Errors were encountered while processing:
    /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-FgpAQz/79-sm_0.29-1_amd64.deb
    E: Sub-process env returned an error code (1)

    Please figure out which of these should be the proper owner of this file
    and reassign the bug to the other in a way that still associates it
    correctly:

    Control: reassign -1 $package1
    Control: affects -1 + $package2

    | I think this is a bug in debbugs here. "sm" should refer to the binary
    | package and the binary package only. If I were to mean the source
    | package, I'd have to say "src:sm" or "Source: sm".

    Yes, I see your point here.

    It's also a minor bug in my package I should clean up 'eventually'.

    | In any case, I concur that the problem exists between sm built from
    | src:screen-message and inn2 built from src:inn2.

    Can you reassign accordingly?

    Tschoe, Dirk

    From my pov, it is correctly assigned. The problem is with the binary
    packages sm and inn2, not with the corresponding source packages. The
    next step for reassignment is figuring out which package should properly
    own the manual page and the command name.

    As you wish, but it strikes we as odd because

    - Your bug report went to the maintainer of package r-cran-sm (i.e., me).

    - Your bug report was about package sm (and another package). You wanted its
    maintainer (or their maintainers).
