Conflicts when repackaging JACK
Hello,
My name is Nick Revere. I am attempting to repackage the latest version
of JACK for my distribution (Mepis 7.0), which is based on etch. I have
previously packaged JACK 0.109.2-1 successfully. However, the new
0.109.2-3 packages refuse to install over the previous packages using
"dpkg -i *.deb". I keep getting the following error:
dpkg: regarding jackd_0.109.2-3mlrepo1_i386.deb containing jackd:
libjack0 conflicts with jackd (>> 0.109.2-2mepcom1)
jackd (version 0.109.2-3mlrepo1) is to be installed.

Errors were encountered while processing:

libjack0_0.109.2-3mlrepo1_i386.deb
libjack0.100.0-0
libjack-dev
libjack0.100.0-dev
I can install the new packages after using the --force-all option in
dpkg to install libjack0, but these packages are intended for a
community repository, and I am unsure of how these things will be
handled by package management software. I have tried several edits of
the control file (Conflicts, Replaces, etc.) If you could advise, it
would be much appreciated. I am sorry if the solution is obvious and I
have wasted your time, but this problem seems intractable.
Thanks,
Nick Revere
