Bug#736607: gcc-4.8-base: please Break gcc-4.7-base from wheezy
Package: gcc-4.8-base
Version: 4.8.2-14
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hi,
please add a Breaks: gcc-4.7-base (<< 4.7.3) to gcc-4.8-base.
This should "simplify" wheezy->jessie upgrades where apt prefers to keep
the wheezy version (4.7.2-5) installed instead of removing some old
packages and upgrading to the jessie version (currently 4.7.3-10).
Some such problems occur during piuparts tests.
Andreas
