[pkg-wine-party] Bug#758147: wine-development: conflicts with wine

[jre <jre.winesim@gmail.com>]

Package: wine-development
Version: 1.7.24-2
Severity: normal


Hi,

--- snip ---
Unpacking wine (1.6.2-8) ...
dpkg: error processing archive
/var/cache/apt/archives/wine_1.6.2-8_amd64.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/bin/regedit', which is also in package

Errors were encountered while processing:

I guess for the time being wine-development should have the same
conflicts/replaces like wine-unstable to wine and vice-versa.
Or you just have to take care of regedit.

Related to the solution that you choose for this bug, I wonder whether
you consider wine and wine-development to be coinstallable and whether
you are basically done with the "big changes" for the wine packages (see
#741702 wine-unstable: not yet ready for stable release).

Personally I'd hope for a single /usr/bin/wine for wine and
wine-development, managed with Debian's alternatives system, instead of
the 3rd-party-(own scripts, winetricks, playonlinux, ...)-breaking
/usr/bin/wine-development.

Still, a huge Thank You for your efforts and I hope you get wine in
shape before the freeze.
