    | The file /usr/share/man/man1/sm.1.gz is contained in the packages

    | * sm/0.29-1 as present in trixie|unstable
    |

    You once again filed against the wrong (source) package sm with binary
    package r-cran-sm.

    I fear this still is a problem with bugs.debian.org and not with my bug
    report. "Package: sm" refers to the binary package sm, not to the source package sm. If I were to report it with the source package, I'd have to
    write "Source: sm" or "Package: src:sm", but I did not. Please observe
    that
    https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?repeatmerged=no&src=sm
    correctly does not include this bug while https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?repeatmerged=no&src=screen-message
    correctly does. Hence this bug is properly filed with the sm binary
    package.

    I reported this problem as #1101292.

    Noted, thanks. So it really is just mail spam to me. I can live with that.

    Cheers, Dirk

    Hi Tiago,

    The bug report below was apparently received by the source:sm
    maintainer, so maybe you did not receive it as the source:screen-message maintainer.

    I'm explicitely notifying you since I care about keeping
    screen-message in Debian testing/stable. If you don't have time to
    handle this, please let me know and I'll try to help.

    Best,

    Lucas

    sm has an undeclared file conflict. This may result in an unpack error
    from dpkg.

    The file /usr/share/man/man1/sm.1.gz is contained in the packages
    * inn2/2.7.1-1+deb12u1 as present in bookworm

    declare Breaks+Replaces: inn2 (<< 2.7.3~rc1-1~). Refer to #1101114 for background on this matter.
