Package: dpkg
Version: 1.4.0.24
Strange situation here:
Two packages of me contained /man/man1 (this is a bug, okay), glade,
glademm.
I installed glademm with /man/man1 directory. I also installed glade with
/man/man1. Then I upgraded glade to a version without /man/man1.
Because I didn't know that glademm contains the directories, I removed them,
and downgraded to glade with /man/man1 for testing (I intended to upgrade
again, to see if dpkg removes the directories).
See what happened:
flora:/gnu# dpkg -i
/home/brinkmds/debian/packages/glade/glade_0.3.1-1_i386.deb
(Reading database ... 33858 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace glade 0.3.1-2 (using .../glade/glade_0.3.1-1_i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement glade ...
dpkg: error processing
/home/brinkmds/debian/packages/glade/glade_0.3.1-1_i386.deb (--install):
trying to overwrite /man', which is also in package glademm
Segmentation fault
Thank you,
