[php-maint] Bug#720053: php5-json: fails to upgrade from 'wheezy' - trying to overwrite /usr/include/php5/ext/json/php_json.h

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: php5-json
Version: 1.3.1+dfsg-2
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package fails to upgrade from
'wheezy'.
It installed fine in 'wheezy', 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

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

  Selecting previously unselected package php5-json.
  Unpacking php5-json (from .../php5-json_1.3.1+dfsg-2_amd64.deb) ...
  dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/php5-json_1.3.1+dfsg-2_amd64.deb (--unpack):
   trying to overwrite '/usr/include/php5/ext/json/php_json.h', which is also in package php5-dev 5.4.4-14+deb7u2
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   /var/cache/apt/archives/php5-json_1.3.1+dfsg-2_amd64.deb


cheers,

Andreas
