[Openstack-devel] Bug#710917: quantum-common: fails to upgrade from 'testing' - trying to overwrite /usr/bin/quantum-*-agent

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: quantum-common
Version: 2013.1.1-3
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts
Control: affects -1 + quantum-plugin-openvswitch-agent quantum-plugin-linuxbridge-agent

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'testing'.
It installed fine in 'testing', 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
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-replaces
