[Bill Allombert]

Package: ntp
Version: 1:4.2.2+dfsg.2-2
Severity: serious

Hello Debian NTP Team,

There is an error when upgrading the package from sarge to etch,
it should Replaces ntp-simple:

  Preparing to replace ntp 1:4.2.0a+stable-2sarge1 (using .../ntp_1%3a4.2.2+dfsg.2-2_i386.deb) ...
  Unpacking replacement ntp ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/ntp_1%3a4.2.2+dfsg.2-2_i386.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite `/usr/sbin/ntpd', which is also in package ntp-simple
  dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/ntp_1%3a4.2.2+dfsg.2-2_i386.deb
  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Sarge ntp-simple include the file /usr/sbin/ntpd.

Cheers,
