[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#457191: octave2.1: Should conflict with octave2.9

[Ted Percival]

Package: octave2.1
Version: 1:2.1.73-14
Severity: important

octave2.1 cannot be installed when octave2.9 is installed. Neither
package has a Conflicts relationship so the failure happens when dpkg
tries to install the package:

> Unpacking octave2.1 (from .../octave2.1_1%3a2.1.73-14_i386.deb) ...
> dpkg: error processing
> /var/cache/apt/archives/octave2.1_1%3a2.1.73-14_i386.deb (--unpack):
>  trying to overwrite `/usr/share/enscript/hl/octave.st', which is also
>  in package octave2.9
