Bug#180297: tetex-base: should replace tetex-extra (<< 2.0)
Package: tetex-base
Version: 2.0-1
Severity: important
Tags: sid
Attempting to upgrade tetex-base with tetex-extra 1.0.2+20021025-7
installed yields
> Preparing to replace tetex-base 1.0.2+20021025-7 (using .../tetex-base_2.0-1_all.deb) ...
> Unpacking replacement tetex-base ...
> dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/tetex-base_2.0-1_all.deb (--unpack):
> trying to overwrite `/etc/texmf/dvips/bsr-interpolated.map', which is also in package tetex-extra
> dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
This does not occur with tetex-extra upgraded to 2.0-1, so a versioned
Replaces: should suffice.
Likewise, tetex-doc should replace tetex-base (<< 2.0-1):
> Preparing to replace tetex-doc 1.0.2+20021025-7 (using .../tetex-doc_2.0-1_all.deb) ...
> Unpacking replacement tetex-doc ...
> dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/tetex-doc_2.0-1_all.deb (--unpack):
> trying to overwrite `/usr/share/doc/texmf/amstex/README.gz', which is also in package tetex-base
> dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
occurs with tetex-base 1.0.2+20021025-7 but not with 2.0-1.
(I can file that as a separate report if you like.)
