  • Bug#264979: heimdal-clients upgrade from woody broken

    From Per Olofsson@1:229/2 to All on Wed Aug 11 11:10:12 2004
    From: [email protected]

    Package: heimdal-clients
    Version: 0.6.2-3
    Severity: serious

    Upgrading Heimdal from woody to sarge is broken:

    Preparing to replace heimdal-clients 0.4e-7.woody.9 (using .../heimdal-clients_\0.6.2-3_i386.deb) ...
    Unpacking replacement heimdal-clients ...
    dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/heimdal-clients_0.6.2-3_i386.deb\ (--unpack):
    trying to overwrite `/usr/share/man/man8/push.8.gz', which is also in
    package \heimdal-servers
    dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
    Errors were encountered while processing:
    /var/cache/apt/archives/heimdal-clients_0.6.2-3_i386.deb
    E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

    I think you should add a "Replaces: heimdal-servers" to
    heimdal-clients or something.

    Thanks for the bug report.

    The "Replaces:" header is there, but it looks like the version spec
    might be wrong heimdal-servers (< 0.4e-7).

    I think the woody security updates may have caused this :-(.

    Hmmm... Maybe (<< 0.4e-8) might be better.

    I will investigate more when I am awake tomorrow.

    I don't think so. The original version in woody without security
    updates was 0.4e-7, and obviously:

    $ dpkg --compare-versions 0.4e-7 '<<' 0.4e-7 ; echo $?
    1

    so it wouldn't work with that one either.

    Hmmm... Maybe (<< 0.4e-8) might be better.

    Yes, that seems correct:

    $ dpkg --compare-versions 0.4e-7.woody.9 '<<' 0.4e-8 ; echo $?

    0
