Hi, gh package maintainer
Package: gh,gitsome
Severity: serious
Control: found -1 gitsome/0.8.0+ds-6
Control: found -1 gh/2.4.0+dfsg1-1
Hi,
installing gh fails for me as follows:
Unpacking gh (2.4.0+dfsg1-1) ...
dpkg: error processing archive /tmp/apt-dpkg-install-DkqFj5/24-gh_2.4.0+dfsg1-1_amd64.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/gh', which is also in package gitsome 0.8.0+ds-6
According to the Debian policy [1], "the two different packages must not install programs with different functionality
but with the same filenames. ... If this case happens, one of the programs must be renamed."
The "gitsome" has used "gh" since 2017, and thus would you mind renaming the "gh" in your package to avoid the conflict issue?
I would appreciate it if you could consider my request, and feel free to let me know if you have another proposal.
Regards,
SZ
